The Romanian Order of Architects (OAR) and the Contracting Authority – the University of Bucharest, are glad to announce the official launch of "The Garden of University House, Bucharest" International Design Competition.
It concerns the construction of a permanent pavilion intended above all to foster a new form of cooperation between different disciplines (art & science), and to offer radically new, method-driven approaches to such collaboration. Conceived as a kind of laboratory and prototyping space, it is meant to be a place for new forms of experimentation.

Beyond the Mall: Rethinking Retail Landscapes as Urban Public Space
Introducing the Kinderspace: Architecture for Children's Development competition / Edition #4, an architectural challenge dedicated to crafting innovative educational spaces that enhance early childhood learning. As young children navigate their formative years, the environment in which they learn plays a pivotal role in their cognitive, emotional, and social development. Traditional educational settings often do not fully cater to the dynamism of early childhood, potentially stifling creativity and exploration.
Have you ever traveled along such a coastline—where the mountains are low, yet cascade gently toward the sea; where the ocean is never far, yet unfolds anew with every turn? Have you ever noticed the villages scattered between bays and tidal flats, sustaining a slow and steady rhythm shaped by tides and monsoons?Have you ever truly seen the night sky— when artificial lights recede, and the sea and the sky nearly merge as one? Have you ever imagined, along this coastal road, a small station called "Zi · Pillowing the Stars"— and, stepping inside, what kind of encounter might unfold?
A journey through mountains and sea, unfolding alongside time—begins here.

For this issue of Dearq, "Tectonic Matter," we are seeking contributions that treat tectonics not as a style or a fetish of detail, but as a rigorous field in which architecture's material realities, its sourcing, craft, labor, structural systems, fabrication protocols, and performance criteria become inseparable from how space is perceived, inhabited, and understood.
Who can submit: We welcome submissions from architects, historians, theorists, engineers, educators, and researchers. Interdisciplinary and context-specific approaches are encouraged, provided they remain anchored in tectonics as a conceptual and practical field of architectural invention.
The editors invite submissions of research articles, case studies, visual essays, and projects will be accepted, provided they are original and unpublished and comply with the journal's editorial policy.
