"In 2006, the city of Madrid announced an international competition for the new Centro Internacional de Convenciones de la Ciudad de Madrid (CICCM). The competition consisted of two phases, aiming to create a multifunctional complex at the base of four future towers. Our team qualified in the preselections, but unfortunately, the construction did not proceed. Numerous renowned international offices and architects participated in this project. João Luís Carrilho da Graça was part of the jury."
