Ahead of the UIA World Congress of Architects Barcelona 2026 (28 June \u2013 2 July), ACE spoke with the Congress curators about the vision behind this landmark event and the role architecture can play in a world undergoing profound transformation.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the first time in the history of the UIA Congress, the event\u2019s curatorship was awarded through an international two-stage competition, reflecting the organisers\u2019 ambition to broaden perspectives and enhance the Congress\u2019s global relevance. As the first city ever to host the UIA World Congress twice, Barcelona is using this opportunity to rethink both the format and content of the event in response to today’s ecological, social, cultural, and technological challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under the theme \u201cBecoming. Architectures for a Planet in Transition\u201d<\/strong>, the curatorial team\u2014Pau Bajet, Mariona Benedito, Maria Giram\u00e9, Tomeu Ramis, Pau Sarquella, and Carmen Torres\u2014envisions Barcelona as a global laboratory for debate, exchange, and reflection. Developed in collaboration with an international network of contributors and the Scientific Committee, the Congress will explore how architecture can respond to the major transitions shaping our societies and environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Organised by the International Union of Architects (UIA)<\/strong> through the Higher Council of Professional Associations of Architects of Spain (CSCAE)<\/strong> and the Architects\u2019 Association of Catalonia (COAC)<\/strong>, the Congress brings together architects, researchers, policymakers, and practitioners from around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this interview with ACE, the curators discuss the ideas driving the Congress, from climate action and urban resilience to housing, material resources, care, and the future responsibilities of the profession. Their reflections offer a glimpse into a Congress that seeks not only to debate change, but to explore architecture\u2019s capacity to actively shape it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ACE: Your curatorial team was selected through an international competition that not only proposed a concept for the UIA World Congress, but also questioned what an architecture congress can be. As a young team, what did this experience represent for you, and what role do you think competitions play for young offices?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are a gender-balanced team made up of architects from different generations, with independent practices and a shared involvement in teaching, research and public debate. For us, the competition opened a very valuable space: it allowed us to take part in defining not only the theme of the Congress, but also the kind of conversation that such an event could generate today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With such an important event taking place in Barcelona, we felt it was essential to ask which questions architecture should be addressing now, and how a world congress could become more than a sequence of lectures. Of course, this involved inviting certain voices, but also creating open formats of participation: through the international Call for Participants, the student competition, the workshops and the research programmes developed around the six thematic lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Competitions can be a very healthy institutional tool when their results are respected and properly supported. In this case, it was the first time that the curatorial team of the UIA World Congress was selected through an international competition. What followed has been almost three years of intense work, conversations and negotiations \u2014 not only among the six curators, but with a much wider network of contributors, institutions and participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ACE: You have also brought new voices and perspectives into this process.<\/strong> What message would you share with young architects trying to find their place in the profession?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

That architecture can be practised in many ways. Building remains essential, of course, but the role of the architect is no longer limited to the production of buildings. It can also take place through research, public policy, material experimentation, participation processes, communicating, curating, environmental practices, legislation or the recovery of local and ancestral knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For younger architects, perhaps the important thing is not to look for a single predefined path. The profession is much wider than it often appears, and architectural knowledge can be useful in many places: in buildings, but also in institutions, communities, regulations, materials, territories and public debate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ACE: Congresses today are highly saturated with content. What does it mean to curate not only a programme, but an experience that remains coherent without becoming prescriptive? How did you decide what to include\u2014and what to leave out?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We did not want the Congress to be organised around one single thesis. A world congress should not speak from only one point of view. Architecture is dealing at the same time with climate, housing, materials, technology, care, regulation, biodiversity, inequality and culture. Any framework that was too narrow would have simplified that condition too much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is why Becoming unfolds through six thematic lines: More-than-human, Circular, Embodied, Interdependent, Hyper-conscious and Attuned. Their names are deliberately open. They are precise enough to give structure, but not so closed that they exclude unexpected practices. The coherence of the Congress does not come from making everyone say the same thing, but from creating a field where different positions can meet, disagree and contaminate each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The selection process was long. We considered architectural quality, but also geographical representation, gender balance, generational diversity and different ways of practising architecture. It was important that the Congress did not become only a sequence of lectures by well-known architects. It also had to include researchers, filmmakers, economists, engineers, artists, public agents and collective practices. That mixture is where the experience of the Congress really takes shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ACE: The idea of Becoming\u00a0<\/strong> Becoming. Architectures for a Planet in Transition frames architecture as an open and evolving condition. What observations from practice, cities, or wider societal changes led you to this theme? And how do you ensure that \u201cbecoming\u201d remains a critical position rather than a neutral description of constant change?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The theme comes from a very simple observation: the conditions in which architecture operates are changing very fast, and not always for the better. Climate change, biodiversity loss, housing inequality, geopolitical instability, tourism pressure, technological acceleration and new forms of vulnerability are transforming cities and territories at every scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But Becoming is not a neutral celebration of change. Change can also mean displacement, speculation, extraction or environmental damage. The question is not whether architecture participates in transformation, but how it does so, for whom, and with what consequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For us, Becoming means working with what already exists \u2014 buildings, materials, communities, regulations, memories, conflicts \u2014 and trying to guide those conditions towards more desirable futures. It is a way of thinking about architecture as a practice of transformation rather than replacement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ACE: Barcelona\u2019s decision to phase out short-term rental licences by 2028 marks a major shift in how the city addresses housing, tourism, and affordability. How do you see this decision in the context of the wider European housing crisis? How will this topic be addressed during the congress?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The housing crisis in Europe cannot be understood only as a problem of supply. It is also a question of land value, speculation, tourism, financialisation, regulation and the right to remain in the city. Barcelona is a very clear example of this tension, because the pressure of tourism and short-term rentals directly affects everyday residential life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The decision to phase out short-term rental licences by 2028 shows that legislation can be a necessary tool to protect something as basic as the right to decent and affordable housing. Architecture alone cannot solve this crisis. Design quality matters, but so do rental regulations, public investment, cooperative models, rehabilitation policies and the transformation of the existing housing stock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Congress addresses housing from several angles: public policy, cooperative housing, reuse, care, collective life, legislation and the right to the city. We are interested in housing not only as a building type, but as one of the places where architecture, economy and politics meet most directly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ACE: The visual identity of the Congress is very strong and immediately recognisable\u2014the use of yellow creates a clear presence across the city and its communication. How did you approach graphic design as part of the intellectual and curatorial framework of the Congress?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Communication is not secondary to content. A congress of this scale needs strong ideas, but it also needs a visual language capable of making those ideas visible, accessible and present in the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main graphic identity was selected through a competition before our appointment as curators, and has been developed by Pr\u00e0ctica \/ Principi. Its use of yellow gives the Congress an immediate and recognisable public presence across different media and urban contexts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alongside this, we have worked with Judit Musachs and Pol P\u00e9rez on a series of collages connected to the idea of Becoming and the six thematic lines. These collages do not illustrate the themes literally. They overlap fragments, scales, references, materials and atmospheres. That is very close to how we understand the Congress: ecological questions overlap with material questions, housing with policy, technology with perception, care with construction. The graphic work helps express that condition of mixture and interdependence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Open Forum \u00a9 Becoming: Architectures for a Planet in Transition<\/em>. Render by Anfibio<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

ACE: The programme is very rich, spanning lectures, debates, exhibitions, workshops, site visits, and the student week. If you had to share one personal coup de c\u0153ur, what would it be?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is difficult to choose only one moment, but we would definitely recommend the plenary sessions. There will be one for each thematic line, at the beginning and at the end of each day. They are the moments where the broader questions of each Becoming are discussed collectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What interests us is that these sessions bring together different layers of the Congress: long-term research projects, short-term workshops, invited practices and the Critical Antagonists \u2014 figures from architecture and other fields who have been invited to question, expand and sometimes challenge the curatorial framework. These sessions are not conceived as summaries, but as moments of confrontation, synthesis and debate around original contributions produced specifically for the Congress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are there moments, sessions, or encounters you are particularly looking forward to, or that best express the spirit of Becoming? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Probably the Open Forum. Every evening, after the sessions at the CCIB, speakers who have participated in parallel throughout the day will come together at Les Tres Xemeneies del Bes\u00f2s for an open and informal conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are no prepared presentations and no fixed script. The discussion will start from the questions running through the Congress \u2014 time, transformation, becoming \u2014 but can move in unexpected directions. Afterwards, food, drinks and music will continue the conversation by the sea. That combination of debate, informality, public space, post-industrial landscape and celebration expresses quite well the atmosphere we hope the Congress can produce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ACE: <\/strong> Beyond the event itself, what mechanisms are in place to ensure that the ideas and debates from the Congress continue to circulate, influence practice, or lead to concrete action afterwards?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have never understood the Congress as only a three-day event. Becoming has already generated research, workshops, publications, exhibitions, student work and collaborations before the Congress itself takes place. Some of these materials will remain through the book and the exhibition; others may continue through public institutions, schools, offices or further research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, we should be careful with the idea that a congress can produce immediate action by itself. Its impact depends on what participants, institutions and administrations do afterwards. But the Congress can create a common ground. It can connect people who were working separately, give visibility to urgent questions and help shift certain professional habits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For us, success would not mean that every proposal is applied literally. It would mean that the Congress helps question some persistent reflexes: building new by default, demolishing too quickly, separating design from policy, or treating materials as abstract resources. In a planet in transition, architecture has to learn to repair, reuse, negotiate, care, legislate and imagine differently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
