The exhibition _Export BARCELONA will open in Geneva (Switzerland) next February. The show will include 20 social housing projects designed by Catalan architects.

_Export BARCELONA is framed within the second edition of the Cities Connection Project which, fleeing from mediatic architecture, aims to showcase functional architecture which is committed to social reality.

This exhibition follows the thread of the _Import GENEVA show, which was seen at Arts Santa Monica (Barcelona) last November, and included 20 collective housing projects carried out by Genevan architects in the last decade.

The Cities Connection Project (CCP), with the support of the Architects' Association of Catalonia, was created in 2013 by architects Nicola Regusci and Xavier Bustos with the aim of establishing a network of cultural connections between Barcelona and the guest cities. "The goal is that architects explore new perspectives with which to observe our cities, that they establish professional networks and they share their vision of urban development," says Nicola Regusci.
