Some of Barcelona’s most symbolic public spaces were changed thanks to the design of the teams of Benedetta Tagliabue and Àlex Ollé (Spain), Odile Decq (France), Peter Cook (United Kingdom) & Yael Reisner (Israel), Grafton Architects (Ireland), ETH Zürich & Urban-Think Tank (Switzerland/Venezuela), Anupama Kundoo (India/ Australia) and Urbanus (China), in conjunction with Barcelona’s leading schools of architecture and design.

The Enric Miralles Foundation is a center for the experimentation of contemporary architecture based on the way of doing and thinking established by Enric Miralles and is conceived as a platform for the promotion of knowledge. The Foundation is an open space in which the legacy of Miralles’ work will encourage future generations of architects to exper iment and explore.
