This is an immersive architectural trip to France and Spain where we explore some of the most influential ideas that have shaped modern cities and contemporary architecture.
Our experience begins in Paris, where we examine the evolution of urban planning, public space, and the architectural movements that transformed one of the world's great cities. Through guided explorations of landmark projects and neighborhoods, participants will gain insight into the relationship between architecture, society, and urban life.

From Paris, we travel to Marseille to explore the visionary work of architect Le Corbusier. A highlight of the journey is an in-depth study of the iconic Cité Radieuse, one of the most influential housing projects of the twentieth century. Here, we examine Le Corbusier's revolutionary ideas on urban living, community design, density, and the role of architecture in shaping modern society. Discussions and site visits will provide valuable context on how his concepts continue to influence housing and urban development worldwide.
The journey concludes in Barcelona, a city celebrated for its remarkable urban design and architectural identity. Participants will explore the city's innovative street networks, public spaces, and planning principles that have made Barcelona a global benchmark for livable urbanism.

No visit to Barcelona would be complete without experiencing the extraordinary works of Antoni Gaudí. From the breathtaking Sagrada Família to Park Güell and other masterpieces, we will examine how Gaudí fused nature, engineering, art, and architecture to create some of the most distinctive buildings ever conceived.
More than an architectural tour, this journey is an exploration of the ideas that shape cities, communities, and human experiences. Through site visits, expert discussions, and cultural immersion, participants will gain a deeper understanding of architecture as a powerful force in shaping the world around us.
