Creemos que la manera de transformar la ciudad es mediante la participación activa de la gente que la habita y de la acción propositiva. Trabajamos sobre los intereses relacionados con la calidad de vida de todas las personas que compartimos la ciudad. La aportación del arquitecto se hace dentro del movimiento urbano, como una pieza más de este engranaje, ayudando a traducir inquietudes ciudadanas y plasmarlas sobre el papel; aportando criterios para la definición de objetivos y estrategias, así como herramientas para definir y comunicar ideas a través del dibujo gráfico…
Fomentamos, entre otros, el debate y la discusión sobre los usos de los espacios y la gestión de los espacios urbanos, los modelos de ciudad, la participación y la recuperación de patrimonio.

LaCol is a cooperative of
young architects who work in the
neighborhood of Sants, in Barcelona. We work from architecture toward social
transformation, using architecture as a tool to intervene critically in the
environments that are closest to us. We root our activity in a horizontal
system of labor, acting alongside society with justice and solidarity in mind.
We believe that the way to transform the city is through the active participation and purposeful action of the people who live in it. We work on topics related to the quality of life of all people who share the city. The architect’s contribution is made within urban movements, as one more piece within this mechanism: helping to translate city-dwellers’ concerns and putting them to paper; providing criteria for defining objectives and strategies, as well as tools for defining and communicating ideas through graphic design…
Among other things, we encourage debate and discussion regarding the uses and management of urban spaces, models for the city, participation, and the reclamation of heritage.
