Annual · first fortnight of October
For architecture studios, refurbishment firms, schools, developers and material suppliers activating in each Colegio territorial during the week. Production from our Madrid hub with delivery to the college venue, a partner venue in the city or a studio-side consignee.
Semana de la Arquitectura is held each year in the first or second fortnight of October and is organised by the Consejo Superior de los Colegios de Arquitectos de España (CSCAE) in coordination with the seventeen territorial Colegios. The call opens hundreds of activities to the public: guided visits to landmark buildings, college awards, talks, exhibitions in college halls, panels and urban routes. Madrid concentrates the bulk of activities thanks to the CSCAE headquarters and a particularly dense college programme, followed by Barcelona, Valencia, Sevilla, Bilbao, Zaragoza and A Coruña, among other cities with a territorial Colegio.
For a studio, a school, a developer, a material supplier or a specialist publisher, the week is a key visibility moment in front of colleagues, end-clients and sector press. The activation combines presence at the college venue with visits to ongoing works and landmark pieces: merch needs to travel with whoever is visiting, speak well for the studio in a peer's bag, and survive a full week of intensive use without creasing on day one.
Combed-cotton T-shirts or piqué polos in understated colours with the studio logo on the chest and the website on the back. Sizing distributed across technical staff, administration and directors; unisex or gendered cut depending on the team.
A5 or A6 notebooks with a black or kraft cover, singer stitching and a ribbon bookmark, with the brand debossed or single-colour screen-printed — the gift a peer will actually use.
Two-metre folding tape measure, digital caliper, branded lanyard with credential holder and a light waterproof pouch for A3 folders — designed for a full October day on site.
Compact box with notebook, metal pen, set of project postcards and a small wooden or laser-cut methacrylate piece. Ready to hand over by name at the college reception.
We produce from the Madrid hub with 21% VAT and B2B invoicing through FACe/SII (Agencia Estatal de Administración Tributaria, AEAT); for EU-based clients we apply the reverse-charge mechanism where applicable. Quantities are sized to the studio and the number of activities scheduled: fifty to two hundred pieces for apparel, one hundred to five hundred notebooks, twenty to fifty premium kits. Delivery is coordinated with the college staff or with the studio office in the host city, usually forty-eight to seventy-two hours before the first event. When the activation spans several cities, it pays to split the order by city and label each batch with its destination, loading slot and receiver so each Colegio receives its share without regrouping. The larger cities — Madrid and Barcelona — often require coordination with a local logistics operator to unload in pedestrianised or restricted streets.
Historically during the first or second fortnight of October, with activities running for up to ten days. The exact dates are published by each territorial Colegio on its official site — review them before locking artwork and sizes, as the college schedule can shift slightly from one city to the next.
Yes. We split the order by city and label each batch with the destination, the loading slot and the receiver, simplifying logistics and reducing regrouping in destination.
For notebooks and screen-printed apparel, four to five weeks from artwork approval. For premium boxes with die-cut and debossed pieces, five to six weeks. Shorter windows are possible only when stock is available and the decoration admits an express run.
