- The Iberian Summer School took place from July 8th to 21st, 2024, in Arcos de Valdevez, in northern Portugal.
The program focused on studying the region’s traditional urbanism, architecture, and construction details, primarily through hand-drawing. The aim was for participants to familiarize themselves with the character and qualities of the region’s architecture. Experts in local vernacular architecture, landscape, and building techniques delivered lectures and conducted various workshops on related topics. During the first week, several trips were organized around the region, allowing for the study and drawing of local architecture in various locations. In the second week, drawing on the work previously done, the students worked in groups on an urban design proposal for Peneda. The process also involved the local inhabitants to adapt the proposal to their needs.
The program was organized by the Traditional Building Cultures Foundation in collaboration with INTBAU Portugal and INTBAU Spain; thanks to the support of Richard H. Driehaus, the Municipality of Arcos de Valdevez, the Fundação Serra Henriques, Kalam, Robert Adam, the Arquia Foundation, and the King’s Trust Australia; and with the collaboration of the architecture schools of the University of Notre Dame, the University of Miami, the Universidade do Porto, the Universidade Portucalense, the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, and the Centro de Investigación de Arquitectura Tradicional (CIAT), as well as other institutions such as Apatrigal, the Horrea Network, Friol, and Carpintaria Senhora da Paz.
