CITYVISION/ROME is a competition of ideas which challenges students, architects, engineers, designers and creative people to present their project proposals with the purpose of stimulating, joining and supporting the contemporary city, in this case Rome, through innovative ideas which can improve their connection between the historical and future fabric aimed to a correct evolution of the architectural historiography.

ARQUICOMICS es un blog que he creado recientemente para recopilar información sobre la relación entre la arquitectura y los cómics.
En algún post de eucomic ya he hablado de alguno de estos casos: dibujantes y autores de cómics que dan una visión personal de la ciudad, la arquitectura o los arquitectos.
