training Last year, 89 students in the 1st and 2nd years of Degree at design and62 students in the 1st year of Degree in Architecture at the University of Navarra had their trips to different European fashion capitals (such as Milan, Vienna or Paris) and to learn about the work of Le Corbusier in Lyon, Firminy, Paris, Basel or Marseille cut short by COVID. For this reason, the center prepared for them, upon their return from the Easter vacations, two formative experiences at the University Art Museum (MUN) led by the magician Numis.

In these "virtual trips" steeped in magic have participated professionals of international trajectory in the world of design and fashion -such as Antonio Marcos, David Iglesias or Melina Carranza- and Art -with the plastic artist and sculptor Cristóbal Toral at the head-. Also architects as relevant as Alberto Campo Baeza (award National Architecture 2020) or Emilio Tuñón (award Mies Van der Rohe Architecture), as well as a group nurtured by teachers of both Degrees.

In the case of the event that replaces the Le Corbusier route, the students had to face several challenges that had as a central point the knowledge of the work of the famed father of Architecture. The final trick of the magician Numis concluded with the finding -in the suitcase that each student had to take with them to simulate the trip they were unable to make-, of the eight volumes of The Complete Works of Le Corbusier, considered "the quintessential bedside work" for a future professional of Architecture.

In the case of Degree at design, the "imaginary" trip brought to the MUN stage Spanish artist Cristóbal Toral (Gold Medal of the Florence Biennial, Gold Medal of the Sao Paulo Biennial, Gold Medal of Andalusia and award of Honor of Culture of the Community of Madrid); Melina Carranza and David Iglesias -official document Studio, one of the ten founding companies of SACO- and Antonio Marcos -The Cut Project- . After roundtable , the students built their own artistic work with the interpretation that "the non-trip" had evoked in them; a work that will be exhibited at School of Architecture of the University of Navarra.

In their case, the final trick of the gala's host, the magician Numis, made it easier for the students to take home a graphic tablet and a course at design Gráfico.
