Radical Rehab. Arquitectura y Patrimonio en España (1975–2025)

The exhibition Radical Rehab. Architecture and Heritage in Spain (1975–2025) examines the transformation of the built heritage in the country over five decades through design and architecture.

La Casa de la Arquitectura, located in the Arquería de Nuevos Ministerios, hosts this exhibition dedicated to examining heritage intervention projects that go beyond simple conservation to provide added value. The tour brings together eighty works developed by professionals from various generations across different points of the national geography, encompassing very diverse scales and programmes. Visitors observe proposals that include educational, cultural, administrative and religious facilities, in addition to individual and collective housing, urban spaces and natural environments. The pieces reflect actions in varied contexts, ranging from the recovery of metropolitan industrial areas to intervention in depopulation-affected zones.

The display is structured into eight thematic axes titled Avant-garde, Identity, Community, City, Dwelling, Technology, Energy and Landscape, which relate the interventions to their social and territorial context. The visit is designed for an audience interested in architecture, design and the evolution of heritage in Spain, offering a broad perspective on the work of architects in recent decades.
