1. Background
- The current Daegu City Hall in Dongin was constructed in 1993, and the City Council building in 1956. Due to aging facilities and a shortage of administrative space, the city has been leasing nearby office buildings and operating in a dispersed manner since 2004.
- Among these, the former Gyeongsangbuk-do Provincial Government Office, built in 1965 and currently used as the Daegu City Hall in Sangyeok, is located approximately 4 km or a 15-minute drive from the Daegu City Hall in Dongin. This facility is also fragmented across several buildings, making it inconvenient for citizens to visit, significantly reducing administrative efficiency, and resulting in considerable unnecessary expenditures.
- As a result, the necessity of constructing a new city hall was brought into public discussion. Since the initial construction plan was established in 2004, a Citizen Participation Committee consisting of 250 citizens took part in the site selection process in 2019, ultimately selecting the Duryu Water Purification Plant site in Dalseo-gu as the final project location.

Launch of the Moroccan Interior Design Awards (MIDA) – 1st Edition
Introducing the MIDA: a new stage for interior architecture and design in Morocco Casablanca, 25 March 2025. Archimedia Group announces the launch of the first Moroccan Interior Design Awards (MIDA), a biennial competition dedicated to interior architecture and design.
Long in the shadows, these professions are now enjoying remarkable growth, driven by a new generation of daring designers and a growing awareness of the importance of the living environment.
Interior architecture and design are shaping our spaces, transcending usage and revealing the identity of the places we live and visit.
MIDA is part of this dynamic, offering a new showcase for the different professions that are redefining the codes of interior design and decoration in Morocco.
A NEW STAGE FOR THE ‘MAKERS OF SPACES
In line with the Young Moroccan Architecture Awards (YMAA), the MIDA celebrates the men and women who, through their sensitivity and mastery, transform the environment in which we live on a daily basis.
This first edition will bring together architects, interior architects, designers, project developers and institutional and private players, thus affirming the fundamental role of design in enhancing living and working spaces.
AWARDS TO HIGHLIGHT THE BEST PROJECTS
With a range of 16 categories and three awards - Jury's Favourite, Audience's Favourite and the Archimedia Prize - the MIDAs will paint a striking portrait of contemporary interior architecture and design in Morocco. The aim of this initiative is to shine a spotlight on the professionals whose work is shaping the spaces of tomorrow, by offering them recognition matching their commitment.
Presided over by Lotfi Sirahal, architect and designer, the MIDA jury will bring together passionate experts to reward the talents redefining the way we design and inhabit spaces.
MIDA aims to become a benchmark event, a place where aesthetics, materials and expertise intertwine, where trends emerge, and where interior architecture is established not as a mere decorative art, but as an essential vector of well-being and emotion. This event is for all those who bring life to the places we live in, animate and share, by infusing them with harmony, character and meaning.
