VILLAGE

6 articles
Presented by
Architecture has a unique way of influencing the human experience, guiding the gaze, or shaping moments. Through the Village section, we explore architecture, design, and urban planning as levers of transformation for a more sustainable habitat, more connected to nature, and deeply rooted in the community.
Whether rethinking our backyards, reinventing the public library, or revitalizing a coastline, these collective projects are shaping a future where architecture becomes a tool for social cohesion and environmental innovation.

ABROAD

Through this section, we invite people to redefine the idea of travel, to embrace a slower, more local, more sustainable, more human, and more meaningful approach.
We offer itineraries, travel journals, and portraits of places that focus less on the destination and more on the experience, the journey, local encounters, and immersion in cultures far from our own. We offer destinations to our readers through itineraries, profiles, travel journals, and practical guides.
