The Brussels Pavilion (also known as the Pavilion of the Hexagons) is one of the most interesting buildings of Spanish architecture and, for me, one of the most advanced of its time, because it is not just a building, but a modular system for constructing buildings. In the guide you will find a lot of information about it. Original publications, the other projects awarded in the competition and some original drawings, thanks to the Molezun Archive at the COAM.

This guide is one of the ones we are most excited about. It inaugurates the typology of "light walks". Guides designed to know the architecture of the city by zones, walking.
We have chosen the university city, around the ETSAM because after spending years there. We have discovered that there was a lot to explore and enjoy in its surroundings that we were not aware of.

This is a very special guide for me. The house on Avenida de Portugal was our home for 16 years and is one of the key reasons this project exists. It opened my eyes to the extraordinary architecture in my own city that I had previously overlooked, and led me to start sharing it. The experience of living within architecture—and sharing it with as many people as possible—became the starting point of MapoutGuides.
