It was a very great pleasure to discussing MAP with David Garcia.

MAP, also known as Manual of Architectural Possibilities, is a publication of projects and visions that arise through collaboration with researchers and the sciences, into territories, which can be concrete or abstract, but always challenged.

MAP is not a magazine (it only has two pages) and it is not a book (it is issued twice a year).

MAP presents itself as a A1-folded poster where informative is immediate, dense and objective on one side, and architectural and subjective on the other. MAP is a guide to potential actions in the built environment, a topography of ideas or a folded encyclopedia of the possible.

MAP's founder and editor-in-chief David Garcia is also the founder of David Garcia Studio, an experimental architectural platform which tests new methods and processes at all scales, with a focus on extreme environments.

MAP is also part of the travelling exhibition Archizines. Visit this exhibition if you have chance, once again, I warmly recommend MAP.
