On November 20, 2024, CADY was transformed into a vibrant stage of design, inspiration and nostalgia. The presentations by Miquel Adrià and Felipe Leal offered us profound reflections on the importance of preserving the architecture of the modern movement and revitalizing the city. We are honored by the presence of prominent personalities from the city, who enjoyed a unique production that merged architecture, fashion, furniture design, art and motorsport.
