Mercat dels Encants, Barcelona, Spain
17 April–11 July 2026
Fridays and Saturdays, 10:00–14:00
EMBT Architects is present in Flearchitecture, an initiative by b720 Arquitectos for Barcelona 2026 World Capital of Architecture. The exhibition proposes a reflection on the use of what is “borrowed” as an architectural strategy. EMBT Architects participates with a model and leporello of Santa Caterina Market, reflecting the architectural process of design and construction behind the project.
Organised as a stall within the Mercat dels Encants, Flearchitecture displays objects related to recent architectural projects of rehabilitation, remodelling, urban regeneration and material reuse. The result is a fragmented yet revealing vision of “second-hand” architectures in Barcelona, inviting visitors to reflect on other lives, the passage of time and the value of what already exists.
