Adaptation Boardgame

“The following trilogy showcases a palette of human beings’ timeless appropriation. Having El Escorial, Poblenou today, and Poblenou as imagined tomorrow share the same soil and sky proves that we are all present in the same maturing ecosystem as active components, yet creating adaptive living designs through time.
Human beings are part of an interdependent network of evolution, highly reliant on social mutations. One can spot a similar difference between yesterday’s actions of life compared with today’s understanding of the space. Before, the grandiosity of architecture was delimiting the spaces and transforming our ways of life. As users of a shared spatial context, our adaptation was crucial to the enclosed built grandiosity. Nowadays, things are different. Indeed, human beings have learned to adapt space to their own needs, deforming some entities and playing with others, like a boardgame. We are the pawns moving with our own algorithms in a set of pre-destined spaces.”
