Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura de San Sebastián

The Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura de San Sebastián is an architecture school housed in a five-story building that includes an auditorium, computer facilities, and workshops for making models. The school provides spaces where students work through different stages of design, from initial sketches to final presentations of their architectural projects.

The school started operating in 1977 under the direction of Barcelona's School of Architecture, then became part of the University of the Basque Country in 1982. Its current building was designed and completed in 1992 by architects Miguel Garay and Santos Barea.

The school follows the Tendenza movement principles of postmodern architecture, reflected in its 1992 building design by architects Miguel Garay and Santos Barea.

The school offers architecture degrees with options to specialize in building construction, urban planning, and regional design. You can walk through the campus to see the working spaces, facilities, and exhibitions or events that happen throughout the year.

The school focuses strongly on energy efficiency and sustainable building practices, conducting ongoing research on these important topics. This focus makes it a place where contemporary building challenges and solutions are actively explored by students and faculty.
