c.guide

c.guide is a digital tool for the exploration of contemporary architecture built since 1979

It was born with the purpose of promoting the recognition of quality architecture around the world as well as serving as a tool for understanding architectural practice as a crucial element in the development of current cities. It is about raising awareness of the importance of the city, public space and architecture in the lives of citizens, trying to awaken interest in architecture on the part of people with or without specific training on the subject and encouraging a debate. public as broad as possible about the space we generate in our cities, without geographical or disciplinary limits.

The guide's desire is to build an open and collaborative imaginary that helps identify contemporary spatial trends both locally and globally. To do this, a digital tool is proposed to facilitate the exploration of the contemporary territory from two complementary positions: exploring the digital map (web) or exploring the real city (mobile application).

While carrying out their personal exploration, both on the web and in the application, the user can contribute to the development of the guide and the experience of other users, as well as develop their own personal guide based on their interests.

This guide aims to be an instrument of reflection in motion, focused on investigating the spatialities that we are generating almost in real time. To achieve this, it relies on the collaboration of both authors and users for its continuous updating.

c.guide, with a radical vocation for contemporaneity, only includes works after 1979. Forty years of perspective that help us reflect on global architecture, at a time in which the certainties of the modern movement have dissolved and cities seem having emerged as a solution and problem of human needs.
