Hi there! Welcome to the second Supporters Newsletter, created exclusively for you. For the second edition, we are dedicating this issue to the concept of Theory & Practice. Featuring our Managing Editor of ArchDaily in Spanish, Fabian Dejtiar, we will delve into the discussion about the interactions between research and practice and how ArchDaily's content incorporates both areas. In addition, we are offering our Supporters a free course on Revit Flow, information on job opportunities at BIG, and our recommendations on digital tools.

Editor Spotlight: Fabian Dejtiar opens the discussion about theory and practice in architecture
Fabian, an Architect and Managing Editor at ArchDaily in Spanish, comments on the relationship between these two areas inside the discipline.
"The relationship between architectural theory and practice is symbiotic and enriching...Theory provides concepts, fundamentals, and critical perspectives that guide practice, while the latter brings theoretical ideas to life and tests them in the real world. Furthermore, I would say practice doesn't just apply theory; it also contributes to it. Real-world challenges that arise during projects often lead to the evolution and refinement of theoretical concepts. This iterative process ensures that theories remain relevant and adaptable.
Platforms like ArchDaily strive for a balanced content mix, incorporating diverse theoretical perspectives and practical case studies from all around the world. This diversity fuels innovation and encourages a holistic understanding of architecture."
"People mistake architecture to be about buildings. Architecture is not that. Architecture is the movements and the relations that are enabled by the way you open, close and channel functions, people and movements within that. The minute that you understand that architecture is about the incident, about the event, about social relations that happen within it, it enables you to understand social relations and events in a much better way. In fact, in a unique way"
