Art, architecture and a strong sense of creative energy came together a few weeks ago at Forbes House Madrid, in an event that highlighted the close relationship between culture, creativity and the way we conceive and inhabit the city.
In this context, our partner and Director of Business Development, Javier Higuera Mata, represented HCP as sponsors of the event “Where Art Meets Fun”, held during ARCO week, one of the most vibrant moments in Madrid’s cultural calendar. The event was conceived as an open space for dialogue, where ideas flowed freely, without labels, and creativity became the true driving force behind the conversations.
The gathering established itself as a genuine meeting point, where art acts as a source of inspiration, architecture serves as a connecting element, and dialogue opens new ways of understanding the city, its transformation and the challenges shaping the future of urban environments.
Spaces where culture, architecture and creative thinking converge
At HCP, we firmly believe in the importance of looking beyond the traditional boundaries of our discipline. We understand architecture as a collective endeavor, enriched through dialogue with other fields such as art, culture and creativity, and strengthened when it embraces diverse perspectives and sensibilities.
For this reason, we are committed to collaboration, to blending viewpoints and to actively participating in those spaces where ideas emerge, driving change and helping to redefine how we design, build and experience our cities. Forums such as “Where Art Meets Fun” encourage this exchange and create fertile ground for critical thinking and shared reflection.
Events of this kind reinforce our approach to architecture not only as a technical practice, but as a discipline deeply connected to culture, social context and the ability to imagine more open, inclusive and sustainable future scenarios.
Architecture is also built through culture
HCP’s participation in Forbes House Madrid underlines our commitment to an architecture open to dialogue, connected across disciplines and attentive to cultural movements that directly influence how we conceive spaces and urban life.
We believe that architecture is not built solely through drawings and construction processes, but also through culture, conversation and the willingness to listen and learn from other creative fields. These meeting spaces enrich our vision and help strengthen a more conscious, sensitive architecture aligned with contemporary dynamics.
We would like to thank Forbes Spain for organizing a day that brought together talent, vision and creativity, reminding us that architecture is also built through culture and through the spaces where ideas take shape and begin to project the future.
