International Competition results for the Urban Development in Split, Croatia
End of October 2008, the City of Split launched an Open International Competition for the Urban Development of the Duilovo coastal area in Split (Croatia). Submissions were due mid of February 2009. The competition has been organized with the support of the Split’s Architects Association (DAS).
The jury issued the following unanimous decision: 1st and 2nd prize will not be given, but three equal 3rd Prizes + 6 Purchase Prizes. Considering the complexity of the intervention, the jury proposed a workshop for all three awarded teams to attend and work together on the further development of the project.
All the winners, after the break.

I traveled through Croatia for a month this past summer. I arrived in Split via a ferry from Korchula. I cannot imagine anything worse being done to the city’s waterfront. these proposals are pure graphic exercises….These are not proposals for the actual site but rather the ‘paper’ as a site. no thought beyond that papers edge of which they reside upon. No doubt, the city needs to do something with the current waterfront configuration, but these are a joke….a travesty.

I just do not understand the need to bring in this much of program on to the Split. This amount of service program demands outskirts that are miserable unless being given huge attentions.
i live near split and all i can say is that the third prize – damir rako looks like it`s for dubai, not split!
i must say that Split misses the spirit of the age we live in. the new arena designed by 3LHD and opened recently has been yet another disappointment. probably one of the less successful projects they’ve ever presented. i hear their project for riva in split is still criticized by the locals and the architects. so, i must say, after seeing this project, that split probably just isn’t their town…. skyscrapers on the waterfront… wouldn’t do that. also no concept of the public areas?!
the project of porticus on the other side respects the landscape, is well incorporated, has no high structures, very green, ecological, so i must say- good work. and love the idea of transforming the building structures into the spaces of public interest (roof structures as walking public pathways).
production 004- i wouldn’t rather comment on that one. perhaps few good ideas, but too little work.
All reworded projects look absolutely amateur. No strong and original concepts, no sense for the context neither for the actual needs of the city!
