The new edition of the International Conference on Traditional Building, Architecture and Urbanism will take place in Écija from 14 to 16 November. The in-person programme will include debates, lectures by international architects, and demonstrations led by master artisans of traditional building crafts. Presentations will address the various topics proposed within the framework of the conference.
The conference will also be available online, as all sessions will be live-streamed, recorded, and later published on the website in the weeks following the event. The in-person programme will be complemented by a series of pre-recorded lectures, based on the articles, essays, and built work featured in the upcoming issue of the Journal of Traditional Building, Architecture and Urbanism, which will be published to coincide with the conference dates.
Researchers, academics, and professionals involved in traditional building, architecture, and urbanism who work in —or have an interest in— the topics proposed for this conference are invited to submit their proposals for participation. The deadline for submission of proposals is 8 September 2025.
This conference is organised by the Traditional Building Cultures Foundation thanks to Richard H. Driehaus and in collaboration with INTBAU Spain, INTBAU Portugal, the Fundação Serra Henriques, the Écija City Council and the Royal Academy of Sciences, Fine Arts and Humanities “Luis Vélez de Guevara.”
