VI PER Gallery announces an international open call for exhibition projects. The winning proposal will be realized at VI PER in late 2021.

Introduction:
Architecture is more than just a building; it is capable of serving deeper functions. We are surrounded by Architecture around us, we walk through it, we live in it, and we are a part of it. It should not be ocular centric and should focus on a complete sensorial experience. A connection between space and human being in rooted in architecture. Architecture influences our behavior and also our senses. The competition, ‘Sensory Architecture’ is looking for essay submissions on the positive impact that architecture has on our senses.

The goal of the competition is to obtain ideas for a representative center of the Slovak University of Technology (STU) in Bratislava. It should include the STU innovative science center, educational, social, multi-purpose, and leisure spaces such as interiors, exteriors, and part of the rector's workplaces.

“The mark of a great city isn’t how it treats its special places – everybody does that right – but how it treats its ordinary ones.” Aaron M. Renn

There is a growing modern trend of people abandoning their lives in large cities and opting instead to live in smaller communities. These intentional communities are an evolution of the utopian colonies and communes of the past, where individuals shared resources and responsibilities in equal measure. In the US alone the number of intentional communities has nearly doubled in recent years, with 1,200 communities registered in 2016.

In this competition, we ask participants to design a cycling bridge in the context of Amsterdam, an effective connection over the river Ij for pedestrians and cyclists – 1 design expressed in 3 drawings.

Water Parks”. The title is only a preview of the complete theme of the competition. More will be explained in the extended brief that will be available on 19th February 2021.

Toronto is among the ten most expensive major housing markets in the world, and housing prices are predicted to rise again in 2020 by almost 10%, according to the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board.

The fast pace of 21st century has led to a very distorted work-leisure balance among urban settlers. This has caused numerous lifestyle-related mental and physical issues like stress, depression and other chronic ailments. This has shifted the focus on wellness and its importance in leading a happy and fulfilling life. We are getting aware and more conscious of the fact that wellness is more than the absence of disease and is a careful holistic balance of the mind, body and spirit. The dialogue has been initiated and we can see an upsurge in the wellness tourism sector, as people demand for a more accessible and wholesome experience.

Millions of people around the world are thinking about how they can radically change their lives for the better. Could living in a tiny house be one of those ways?

Near the ocean and the Hossegor Lake, Caroline and Charl are currently owners of a 1700sqm plot and want to build a 300sqm passive house to live as sustainable as possible. As a historical touristic area, the Landes county suffers from the urban sprawl and the lack of sustainable buildings necessary to change mindsets.

Starting in November 2020, AnA will take a Virtual World Tour and “visit” selected countries around the world to meet some of their most relevant architects. Now that we can not meet you and our speakers at a fully booked auditorium, we will bring the speakers directly to your homes and offices!

At our fifth event of the tour, we will “visit” South Korea and meet two of its most remarkable architects.

To halt the physical and social deterioration of the former "Bronx" sector and create conditions for the center's consolidation as a hub for economic, creative, cultural, and social development, the Mayor's Office—as part of the Bronx Creative District project, led by the Gilberto Alzate Avendaño Foundation (FUGA) and implemented through the Bogotá Urban Renewal and Development Company—has published the draft Terms of Reference for the procurement of detailed studies and designs, as well as the management and acquisition of permits and licenses for comprehensive interventions in two Cultural Interest Assets (BIC) that will form part of the Bronx Creative District.

In our lighting community, we have had a unique year, full of lessons that we are eager to continue exploring and expanding upon through our "Lighting Seminar," which will take place via ZOOM on Wednesday, January 13, 2021.
