Over the coming months, students will learn the principles, techniques and processes of traditional stone construction, with particular attention to the building systems historically developed in the mountainous region of Asir, whose architecture forms a fundamental part of the region\u2019s cultural identity and landscape. <\/p>\n The different modules will be taught by stonemasons, builders, architects and other highly regarded professionals with extensive experience in traditional construction, building crafts and heritage conservation, with whom the Foundation is pleased to collaborate. <\/p>\n More information<\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_5,3_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/intbauspain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Iberian_Summer_School_Lisbon_16.jpg” title_text=”Iberian_Summer_School_Lisbon_16″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Results of the 2026 Iberian Summer School<\/strong> <\/p>\n The Iberian Summer School took place from 5 to 19 July 2026 in Lisbon, Portugal, and was organised by the Traditional Building Cultures Foundation, thanks to Richard H. Driehaus, with the support of the C\u00e2mara Municipal de Lisboa, Universidade NOVA de Lisboa, Funda\u00e7\u00e3o Serra Henriques, INTBAU Portugal, INTBAU Spain and Jos\u00e9 Baganha & Arquitectos Associados, Lda, as well as the collaboration of various national and international institutions and universities. <\/p>\n The programme focused on the study of Lisbon\u2019s traditional urbanism, architecture and building techniques, primarily through hand drawing and the analysis of buildings and urban spaces. The aim was for participants to become familiar with and understand the characteristics and qualities of local architecture as a starting point for the subsequent design work. <\/p>\n During the first week, a series of technical visits through the city were organised to study and draw representative examples of its architecture and urban fabric. The programme was complemented by lectures by architects, researchers and other specialists, as well as demonstrations by master craftspeople on different traditional materials, crafts and techniques. <\/p>\n During the second week, the work focused on the Galinheiras neighbourhood. Based on the analysis of the site and the knowledge acquired over the previous days, participants worked in groups to develop urban and architectural proposals for the regeneration and improvement of its degraded areas. The process also involved representatives and technical staff from Lisbon City Council, who provided information on the situation of the neighbourhood and the problems and needs that the proposals were expected to address. <\/p>\n More information<\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_5,3_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/intbauspain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/EuropaNostra.jpg” title_text=”EuropaNostra” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Call for Entries Open for the European Heritage Awards \/ Europa Nostra Awards 2027 <\/strong><\/p>\n The call for entries for the European Heritage Awards \/ Europa Nostra Awards 2027 is now open, recognising outstanding projects and initiatives in the field of European cultural heritage. <\/p>\n Entries may be submitted in five categories: Conservation & Adaptive Reuse; Research; Education, Training & Skills; Citizens\u2019 Engagement & Awareness-raising; and Heritage Champions. <\/p>\n The deadline for submissions is 7 September 2026. <\/p>\n More information<\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_5,3_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/intbauspain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/RaphaelAwards.jpeg” title_text=”RaphaelAwards” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Call for Entries Open for the 2026 Raphael Awards for Classical Architectural Drawing<\/strong><\/p>\n Traditional Building<\/em> magazine has opened the call for entries for the fourth edition of the Raphael Awards, which aim to promote the study of classical and neoclassical architecture through hand drawing and painting. <\/p>\n Drawings may be submitted until 31 August 2026.The winning works will be announced in December 2026 and presented during the Traditional Building Conference, which will take place on 3 and 4 November 2026 in Charleston, United States. <\/p>\n More information<\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_5,3_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/intbauspain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/CursosTableINTBAU.jpeg” title_text=”CursosTableINTBAU” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Traditional Building Crafts Workshops in Alsace<\/strong> <\/p>\n La Table Ronde de l’Architecture has opened applications for a series of training courses in traditional building crafts, to be held over five weekends between August and October 2026 in Westhoffen (Alsace, France).
