The Municipality of Pristina / Capital City has initiated a comprehensive and inclusive planning process for the development of the Capital City Cemetery of Pristina, conceived as a contemporary civic, memorial, landscape, and digital public infrastructure of long-term importance. The project aims to establish a new model for cemetery planning and funeral infrastructure in Kosovo, based on: • dignity, • equality, • coexistence, • institutional professionalism, • sustainability, • digital governance, • and respect for religious and cultural diversity. The process has been developed through continuous dialogue and consultation with representatives of religious communities, institutional stakeholders, technical experts, and international partners. The future cemetery complex is envisioned not merely as a burial ground, but as a carefully designed landscape of memory, reflection, peace, coexistence, civic identity, and long-term collective responsibility.

Competition Theme: Rural Residential Architectural Design Competition Objective: To contribute to rural revitalization, inherit regional culture, reclaim the beauty of rural nostalgia, and reshape ecological living environments.
I. Project Background The prosperity of the countryside is the foundation of national prosperity. In just a few years, China’s rural development has progressed rapidly—from the "New Rural Construction" and "Beautiful Countryside" initiatives to the current "Rural Revitalization" strategy. The central government has placed unprecedented importance on rural development. Because rural landscapes best reflect regional cultural characteristics and the level of local civilization, China has long been committed to developing the rural economy and improving the lives of farmers, leading to profound changes in the rural landscape. However, given the diverse backgrounds of rural areas across the country and the accelerating pace of urbanization, higher demands have been placed on rural construction. Avoiding the "cookie-cutter" phenomenon—where cities look the same—and preventing it from extending to the countryside is a complex and urgent task. It is essential to tailor development to local conditions and create unique rural landscapes.
Zhuhai’s countryside boasts both picturesque natural scenery and enduring, widely celebrated stories. With its wealth of natural and human resources, the area possesses immense potential. Yet, due to rapid development and a lack of experience, the rural landscape of Zhuhai is being tested, and some resources have already suffered varying degrees of damage. To elevate Zhuhai’s rural development, fully express its rural character, and ensure the successful inheritance of its regional cultural context, we are launching this "Zhuhai Rural Residential Architectural Design Competition" nationwide. Through this competition, we hope to mobilize forces from all sectors of society to conduct targeted research on Zhuhai’s rural housing and collect outstanding design proposals. This will contribute a remarkable chapter to the rural revitalization strategy and further enhance the beauty of Zhuhai’s countryside.
