Today Barcelona Architecture Walks is celebrating our 15th anniversary!
On the 30th of October 15 years ago we set out on this adventure. Barcelona Architecture Walks are a series of tours led by architects that showcase our city from a point of view, inviting you to discover our city and experience the thrill of its essence.
With our backpacks full of enthusiasm and passion for what we do, we show the architecture, the history and the culture of Barcelona through the eyes of architectural professionals that help us see the urban environment from a unique and passionate perspective.
We have always given special attention to the masters of Barcelona architecture like Enric Miralles, Ildefons Cerda, Antoni Gaudi and his contemporaries; but all the while we have also put special emphasis on widening horizons, showing parallel themes and incorporated concepts that define the contemporary city: such as its resilience, integration, social housing and returning green to our public spaces.
Each tour reflects our commitment to present a vision of the city that is critical, innovative and in constant evolution; always looking for the versatility that allows us to adapt to a public that is increasingly diverse and lively.
None of this would have been possible without the enthusiasm of our team, all architecture professionals; educator and writers that have accompanied us along the way. Each one of whom has their own voice and narrative style while sharing an interest in conveying the essence of Barcelona. We have grown personally and professional since this project started and now the BAW is an extension of our family.
This year to celebrate we will publish a video so you can get a glimpse of our walking tours.
We are celebrating 15 years of learning, of encounters, of passion for this city; and now we would like to thank all of those that have made this passionate journey possible; explaining the past while always looking to the future with the same curiosity that made us take that first step.
