ENCOUNTERS represents an architectural installation created to discover, explore, and display the work of Spanish practice luis vidal + architects (LVA)—a celebration of their vision and main projects over the last ten years, including the soon-to-be-inaugurated Terminal 2 at London’s Heathrow Airport, scheduled to open in June 2014.

The exhibition was conceived to create a meditational space in which one may experience the architectural queries and needs of the 21st Century through the critical eye of unconventional architect, Luis Vidal. This is not an architectural exhibition as you have ever seen before.  A “vertical garden” planted by hand: the installation (6,000 “flowers”, 80 projects, 18 cities) will take the viewer through a personal journey along the conceptual map of Luis Vidal and his collaborators.

ENCOUNTERS is an interactive exhibition with a surprising touch of augmented reality. Welcome to the world of LVA. Expect the unexpected.
