Overview

The exhibition Modèliques. Ciutats i utopies 1859 - 1958 brings together in Barcelona urban planning projects that move between utopia and technical reality.

This cultural proposal invites visitors to explore ten urban planning schemes devised between the late nineteenth and the mid-twentieth century. Visitors discover scale models, plans and historical documentation showing how various visionary creators rethought the organisation of territory and urban space, taking as their starting point the legacy of Ildefons Cerdà. The exhibition design details the technical and social solutions proposed to respond to the collective challenges of different geographies.

The Centre Obert d'Arquitectura - Seu de Barcelona hosts this detailed tour through the institution's rooms. The visit is designed for enthusiasts of urban design, architecture professionals and anyone interested in understanding the evolution of modern urbanism through the analysis of these historical models.
