Prologue Magazine

Explore our student-driven magazine that shapes the built world and fosters dialogues between the young and the experts.

Who are We?

Prologue is a magazine based in Madrid that is concerned with the built environment. It uses and consults an array of disciplines that are often outside of the confines of architecture, allowing for a comprehensive analysis of forces that comprise our built world.

In addition to mapping the landscape of disciplines that comprise the built world, it is also interested in mapping the array of voices and registers that critique and contribute to it. It blurs the dichotomy of the high registers of academic writing and the emergent, rapidly evolving, and ubiquitous language being shaped on the internet.

It is run by a small team of dedicated students from the IE University School of Architecture and Design, and is always welcoming more voices and contributions. It continually tries to put the young and curious in conversation with the established and knowledgeable.

Its upcoming edition is titled ‘END +’ and is concerned with the general ambience of crisis in the age of climate catastrophe and rogue capitalism. It will feature voices as diverse as the Lebanese Architect Lina Gotmeh, the British artist James Bridle, among many students, architects, artists, designers and academics.

SPRING | EDITORIAL SEASON

1. Find new theme.

Looking into today’s discussions we propose a thought-provoking topic that can be explored through the eyes of architecture and design students.

2. Call for content.

Once the theme is picked out we open the space for different creators to contribute with their points of view on the topic.

3. Promote previous issue.

This is the time when we also advertise our previous work through different media (posts, events, posters…)
