It will open from 20 March.------------------------The first lecture in the Professional Practice Lecture Series by Carme Pinós of Estudio Carme Pinós will delve into the intricate dynamics of architectural practice. Rather than an exploration of individual buildings, the event will consider the processes and challenges architects face in their work, as well as the evolving directions of the profession. Carme Pinós, a globally renowned architectural figure, brings to the forefront her extensive experience spanning public architecture, social housing, urban renewal, and furniture design. Through her established firm, Estudio Carme Pinós, she has crafted a portfolio marked by notable projects that embody her distinctive approach, emphasising folded materials, architectural narrative, and humanistic principles. Her work reflects a commitment to fostering inclusive social environments, where spaces facilitate meaningful interactions and foster a sense of community and belonging. With a keen eye on regional influences and community dynamics, Carme Pinós champions experiential volumes over grandiose architectural statements, echoing her belief in architecture's capacity to shape inclusive and interconnected environments. The event promises to be an insightful exploration of how architects like Carme Pinós navigate the complexities of their practice while engaging with diverse communities and locales, ultimately shaping the fabric of our built environment with sensitivity and purpose.The <a href="https://architectureau.com/articles/housing-affordability-solution-wins-2024-aa-prize-for-unbuilt-work/" title="https://architectureau.com/articles/housing-affordability-solution-wins-2024-aa-prize-for-unbuilt-work/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">AA Prize Unbuilt</a> exhibition will be launched at 5.30pm, followed by the lecture at 6pm. <h4>About the Speaker</h4>After achieving international recognition together with Enric Miralles with projects such as the Igualada Cemetery, Carme Pinós founded her own studio in 1991.She has received numerous awards and mentions including the recent Prat de la Riba Award 2023, the Gold Medal 2022, the Arnold W.
