Competitions -as particular instruments for managing architectural work- can be understood as a field of competence and research of the architectural project which is part of the production processes of the fields of culture and social life. It is in direct interrelation with the spatial-temporal circumstances in which these processes occur. We can affirm that competitions accompany the history, the present and the future of our discipline, they act as trainers of work teams, stimulate creativity, and promote generational changes. We believe that the regularity of the competition system throughout the process of cultural modernization starting from 1955 (after the overthrow of Juan Domingo Perón Presidency) produced a particular synergy developed within a framework in which the new generations of young architects found a space of rebellion and progress as well as a way of articulating projective theories and practices, teaching and learning, work and power relations. It is in this context that the figure of the architect Juan Manuel Llauró emerged as one of the most emblematic representatives of this era; he knew how to reinterpret the postulates of the Modern Movement from a creative humanist perspective.
