Inflexión / Turning Point refers to the transformation process that Spanish architecture is currently undergoing. Resilience, ecology and social values are issues examined by the 15 winning projects and 27 finalists of XII BEAU the 12th Spanish Architecture and Urbanism Biennial. The need for sustainable construction, revitalized urban centres, a transition from policies based on the recycling and reuse of existing structures and resources are issues that embody this turning point. Alternative strategies for urban development, emerging among younger generations, envision a different perspective into the near future.
