The interview explores authorship, patronage and the importance of recognising makers not simply for their ability to preserve traditional knowledge, but for their role in actively shaping contemporary design.

Our third AGORA conversation took us somewhere new: Madrid

For the first episode recorded in Spain, we returned to the world of hospitality but from a different angle, asking how its continued evolution can drive transformation far beyond the spaces themselves.

José Manuel Soria, Economist and Lawyer; State Commercial Technician and Economist; former Minister of Industry, Energy and Tourism (2011–2016), joined Javier M. Posse, Founder & CEO of Furtivo () and Vivir 2 Veces, in conversation with our founder Miriam Llano.

A special thank you to Mestizo Gallery () for opening its doors to our recording.

Coming soon in English and Spanish.

We look forward to sharing their vision, projects and perspective with our community.

What was once a fenced-off patch of woodland in Shanghai, is now a space for gathering and reflection.

Our Amphora Pick of the Week is The Breeze Hall, a 680 m² pavilion designed by SHISUO Design Office () within Lu Xun Park. Conceived as a contemporary sanctuary open to the city, its lightweight steel structure creates a space covered with a perforated roof that filters sunlight, encourages natural ventilation, and frames the surrounding landscape.

Moving between concealment and revelation, the architecture creates a place that feels at once monumental and deeply human.
