The Academy of Architecture was created with the aim of promoting the quality of architecture and its teaching, the organization of the territory and the conservation of the archives of French history in this field.
This award comes on top of the numerous recognitions that RCR has received in its 25-year history for its active role in contemporary architecture. They are Honorary Members of the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA 2012), Honorary Members of the American Institute of Architects (AIA 2010), Chevalier de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres de la République Française (2008) and Premi Nacional de Cultura de la Generalitat de Catalunya (2005). Their work has been presented in publications and in exhibitions mounted in Paris, Chicago, Venice, New York and Tokyo.
Currently, two exhibitions in Barcelona show the creativity of the architects from Olot. The first can be visited in the Palau Robert and looks back over their 25 years of history. The second, at Arts Santa Mònica, named RCR ARQUITECTES: PAPERS puts the spotlight on the studio’s creative process, with drawings, sketches, and various papers.
