What's it about

Barcelona 2035. A city to live in is a living exhibition that invites you to discover the great transformations that are redefining Barcelona and evolves with it, updating itself and incorporating new projects and new perspectives as the city moves forward. A point of citizen outreach, a lookout over the present and the immediate future, a space of a city that thinks, plans, and acts. Visitors can explore in detail the great city projects spread out on a large table in the center of the room. Maps, models, and images guide you through the ongoing transformations and explain the impact these generate on people's lives. A journey that allows you to understand how each intervention is part of a broader city project and how its effects are felt concretely in neighborhoods and daily life. Where is more housing being generated? Where are new quality jobs being created? How is mobility improving? How are neighborhoods adapting to encourage people's rootedness and strengthen their identities? 'Barcelona 2035' answers by explaining the great areas of transformation of the city: the new neighborhood of La Marina del Prat Vermell, the new Montjuïc as a great urban and metropolitan park, with the renewed Fira and new housing, the coastal front and the last pending connection, the Knowledge Citadel as a leading node in Europe, the Three Chimneys in Sant Adrià de Besòs, the transformation of La Sagrera and its surroundings, Vall d'Hebron, Porta Diagonal-Campus Clínic and the Bioclúster L'Hospitalet as new biomedical and scientific campuses open to the city, and 22@Nord with more housing and urban quality. Behind this great transformation lies a shared vision and a clear commitment: with a horizon of 2035, the City Council is deploying public investment of over 10.6 billion euros in strategic projects that are already transforming neighborhoods and improving the quality of life of all who live there. These are large-scale projects spread across the territory and present a new way of understanding the city: more livable, more prosperous, more cohesive, and better connected. The exhibition is part of the programming of the World Capital of Architecture and dialogues with the other exhibitions hosted by the new Barcelona Architecture House, located in the former headquarters of the Gustavo Gili publishing house. On one hand, the large Pla de Barcelona 2026-2035 model, which is displayed at the entrance of the building. On the other hand, Barcelona, a diverse, intense, and complex city, a singular look at the city based on data, processes, and experiences. Curators: Elena Amat Serrano, Gerència de Coordinació Metropolitana i Grans Transformacions de Ciutat, Ajuntament de Barcelona. Museum and graphic design: Andrea Manenti i Núria Torrell Elena.
