This year’s FADfest came to end last week and forms part of a more wide-ranging event, the Barcelona Design Festival, which took place between 11 June and 11 July.
FADfest Awards celebrated fifty-five years of life and have become a barometer of Peninsular architecture in Spain. The awards maintain their commitment to fostering the values of today’s architecture and interior design as well as the avant-garde currents under which they were created.
The Architecture and Interior Design Awards celebrated unique designs from around Spain.
