“El Creador concibió el papel para hacer en él dibujos de arquitectura. Todo lo demás es, al menos en lo que a mi respecta, desperdiciarlo”. Alvar Aalto
We are a group of young architects in contact with design and architecture professionals from around the world. From this, we have conceived poStboks, as a platform for the transmission of Architectural ideas. The idea is clear: create a simple and minimal magazine or small booklet which is a luxury edition where drawings and outlines have special protagonism.
As our first editorial said (October 2002), we try to communicate a new way of transmitting architecture, looking for first class projects, competitions, designs, ideas ... which have not yet been shown before.
Moreover, poStboks is really a very independent and unique magazine with very different content than other publications. It takes care of its public, essentially young, including: Schools of Design and Architecture, Proffesional buros, Museums of Contemporary Art, Galleries, Fashion and Design shops ...etc.
Continually linked to Schools of Architecture, poStboks has been presented at the Círculo de Bellas Artes (Fine Arts Circle) of Madrid; at the Master of Advanced Architecture at the Architecture School of Barcelona, at the Rrevistas exhibition (Barcelona 2003) during the Year of Design, which was about Art Magazines, architecture, illustration and graffiti, design ... from many different countries.
In addition, poStboks has been part of the MAD´03 ZIN Art & Creation and, last summer in Barcelona, postBoks took part in the `OFF FORUM´ exhibition as a collaborator.
