INCM Madrid 2016 will welcome 200 students of Architecture from all Europe during 10 days in the Spanish capital offering the participants lectures, discussions and cultural activities in relation to the RetroActive theme. This year, the INCM organizers have embraced the challenge of creating an ephemeral habitat to host our guests at the Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura de Madrid (ETSAM - Universidad Politécnica de Madrid). The site will emerge among students, professors and professionals, which makes an idyllic atmosphere to carry out an architectural research project. The habitat consists of a torus-shaped large inflatable tent that will be home to 200 students during the event, creating a unique atmosphere within an innovative project that features fabric and air only. A temporary space of magical and spatial qualities that will be open and presented to the public for the first time the 30th of September 2016.
There have been many INCMs but the official count started in 1991 in Berlin, where the "Lichterfelder statement” –or the EASA guide– was made. This guide is updated at every meeting, and this is how EASA keeps gathering five hundred of the most progressive architecture students and young, talented architects to develop workshops and exchange knowledge in a horizontal and dynamic atmosphere.
