Last November, Guillermo Vázquez Consuegra gave a lecture titled: ‘Il mio lavoro, da Aldo Rossi a oggi‘ at the headquarters of the magazine Casabella in Milan. He reviewed the three projects currently under construction by the studio: the Archaeological Museum and Atarazanas Cultural Center in Seville and the Museum of the Sea in Trieste.

Recently, the acquisition by the Centre Pompidou in Paris of original documentation, plans, and models of six projects by the studio of Guillermo Vázquez Consuegra has become effective: Olivares Garden (1976), House and Studio for  painter Rolando in Mairena del Aljarafe (1982), Ramón y Cajal Social Housing Building in Seville (1986), Navigation Pavilion for Expo ’92 in Seville (1990), Urban Planning of the Maritime Front of Vigo (1993), and finally, the Atarazanas of Seville in its two versions, Caixaforum (2012) and Cultural Center (2015). The French government acquires a collection of more than 70 original plans on tracing paper or polyester, 80 photographs, 60 drawings and sketches, and 7 study models or other more definitive ones, which will share space alongside works by other great architects such as Carlo Aymonio, Vittorio Gregotti, Louis Kahn, Norman Foster, Fernández Alba, Oriol Bohigas, or Álvaro Siza.

At the beginning of 2025, the first phase of the future Atarazanas Cultural Center in Seville has been completed. Currently, the arrengement for the second phase, which consists of the conditioning of the first floor of the architectural intervention, is pending.
