Future Architecture Platform is a European program which promotes talents in architecture. Created by an association of 19 institutional bodies, Future Architecture Platform is based on an open call and a selection process in the form of an on—line voting procedure of the projects submitted. The platform selects 25 finalist proposals and turns them into a program of exhibitions, events and workshops shared by all the participating institutions. The program objective is to identify young groups of professionals, creative talents and enthusiasts from different parts of the world whose ideas are able to tell us the future of architecture. In line with its nature, MAXXI chose to relate to the Future Architecture Platform project with its consolidated strategy of promoting young talents, presenting the artworks of five of the 25 finalist groups in the exhibition and offering to five more studios the opportunity to personally tell the research they have been carrying out in a series of talks which will take place in the piazza of the Museum during summer. Through their exhibited projects, Future Architecture Platform finalists help us understanding how architecture may play a role in our future societies thanks to innovative solutions in the field of technology, of social space, in the relationship between architecture and its users, as well as in the very same idea of construction and cooperation.
