In Venezuela...


When the people of the town open their eyes that morning they couldn’t relieve what had happened… An enormous mountain of gold was just there, on the main square, in fornt of their blinded ayes.

As every day in this little, beautiful village in the coast of Venezuela, people had gone to bed at 11.00 pm, after had done what they usually did: Nothing! No hopes, no ambition, only sun, fish and dozens of kids everywhere. Still, they where happy.

They had never watched television, they had never surfed on the Internet -actually, they didn’t know anything about the Internet-, they had only enjoyed the “grace of the nature”, the natural life-style, further from politics, fashion or the economic index.

But that day… that day, when they woke up, all of them knew that their lives had changed, just because they had the biggest mountain of gold in front of their eyes. So, they hit the jackpot!

They danced, they laughed, they cried and, at the end, they decided not to touch it, just leave it there for the pleasure of their eyes. Just leave it there to feed their imagination and, the most incredible thing happened… nobody asked where this gold had come from. And, perhaps even more incredible, the town is still there, people are still doing nothing and the mountain of gold remains the same height. Wouldn’t you like to live here?

In London... Spain


The red/gold team!
Have you enjoyed the 2008 European Football Championship? Did you support the Spanish Team last Sunday? Well, we expect to continue having fun with the Spanish Team until the final round! However, we still have a challenge tomorrow when we’ll play to Russia. The Spanish red colour will take London! Good Luck!

Pasión futbolera.
Los ingleses se han sumado a la pasión española y no han dudado en apoyar, y no se han quedado cortos en halagos, al equipo español, el que ya ha hecho historia al pasar de Cuartos, y aún más al ganar a la poderosa (y siempre “lucky”) Italia. Mañana toca enfrentarse a Rusia, con su segundo uniforme, color oro, por ser el equipo visitante. Las esperanzas de llegar a la final del domingo son infinitas…

In London...



Psycho buildings and other events at the Southbank Centre
It’s probably the most dared and unique architectural exhibition, which marks The Hayward’s 40th anniversary and brings the work of artists who create “habitat-like structures and architectural environments”. The exhibition will be on display until the 25th of August and it will include films, talks and other events.


Arquitectura y/o arte a orillas del Támesis. Hasta el próximo 25 de agosto el centro cultural del Southbank londinense nos ofrece una exhibición contemporánea, interactiva e inteligente con la arquitectura como inspiración y fantasía. Diez artistas de diferentes países (Cuba, Reino Unido y Corea, entre otros) han transformado el espacio inetrior y exterior de la galería The Hayward. Exposiciones audiovisuales, charlas y la participación de artistas y arquitectos de renombre internacional invitan a pasarse más de una vez por este centro, situado a orillas del Támesis y junto a otros emblemáticos edificios de la zona como el Royal Festival Hall.
