I KNOWED THE TOCO MADERA XL!
Toco Madera is a workshop organized jointly by the Chamber of Wood, Furniture and Equipment of Córdoba (CAMMEC) and the Faculty of Architecture, Urbanism and Design (FAUD) of the UNC. In the activity, which aims to promote the use of wood in these careers, 9 companies, 9 chairs, 2 technical colleges and more than 200 students are participating.
The objective of Toco Madera is to seek that wood be the protagonist of interventions in the city and in this way promote the use of it.
Nine teams composed of teachers, affiliates and students of FAUD, together with CAMMEC partner companies and IPET 64 and 70, designed devices that were located in public spaces in the city of Córdoba within the framework of the Design Biennial.
You will find the interventions located in strategic places such as: Guernica Square, the former Velez Sarsfield Square, the Plaza de la Inmaculada, the Museum of Industry, the upper esplanade of the Municipality of Córdoba, the Culture Center 220, the Bv. of the Reformation, the esplanade of the Cabildo and the Parque de las Naciones.
The 9 milestones are mounted in public spaces and are the "Design points" of the Design Circuit that has the Biennial, which includes shops, factories, museums, which will develop activities during those days. You can visit them from October 19 to November 15.
