     5ND WORKSHOP, WOMAN AND CITY, ARCHITECTS FOLLOWING UTOPIA: Inhabitable Spaces within the city? 

 

Assembly hall of the Jose Ortega and Gasset Foundation

Fortuny 53, 28010, Madrid , June 2005 

 

 

 

 

We tried to build a place to encounter different citizenship groups: students, architects (men & women) and all those associations and professionals related to the construction, freedom and life world. Directed to all who - still - beleive that the construction of inhabitable spaces,  is possible. Possible for our pockets. Possible for our desires. Possible for those who arrive new and for the ones who have been here for long. Possible for the new families we are creating, emergent models for a new society. Possible for daily life. Possible for work. For dreams. Possible for  women and  men with their different rates and  ways of life. 

Because we are equal but different and we needed a worthy space where to live in equality.
