Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura de Sevilla, Architecture school at Reina Mercedes Campus in Seville, Spain
The Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura de Sevilla is an architecture school on the Reina Mercedes Campus in Seville, occupying multi-story structures with design studios, lecture halls, and a specialized library. The facility includes modern workshops, notably a FabLab equipped with laser cutters and 3D printers for creating architectural models.
Founded in 1960 as part of the University of Seville under director Alberto Balbontín de Orta, the school was established to provide advanced architectural education. Over the decades, it grew to become one of the country's leading training centers for architects.
The school's spaces reflect its artistic mission, with exhibition areas where students display their design work. These shared spaces encourage collaboration and dialogue among the student community throughout the academic year.
Visitors can tour the workshops and facilities, but should contact the school in advance to arrange access. Weekday visits work best, when students are actively working on projects and the spaces feel most alive.
The school operates its own FabLab where external users can reserve equipment and machinery through an online booking system. This facility allows local designers and professionals to access cutting-edge tools for their own projects.
