In the 1990s, the field of architectural design was transformed by the widespread adoption of computers and CAD programs. This revolution affected the entire design process from start to finish, including presentation techniques. Traditional watercolor paintings were replaced by computer-generated images that could show the design from multiple angles. A virtual camera could even fly through the design and produce a video tour of the yet-to-be-built concept.

VeloNotte, international urban history startup on two wheels, celebrates its 10th anniversary of their nocturnal tours with an exhibition-workout in the Schusev Museum of Architecture in Moscow.
Just a few steps from Kremlin, Velonotte converts the room of the 18th-century mansion into a cycling studio. Once you start to pedal the journey will bring you to one of the cities that the project explored so far with speakers like Richard Rogers, David Adjaye, Richard Burdett, Peter Ackroyd, Vladimir Paperny, Jean-Louis Cohen.
The exhibition will feature amateur videos selected by curators from the posts of the more than 100,000 participants of Velonotte night tours all over the world.
On display are also original documents and artifacts from the Velonotte history – such as a piece of the memorial plaque that Velonotte had unveiled in Moscow at Petrovka street 27/16 - where architect Konstantin Melnikov lived during his happiest 1920s (the tablet was destroyed by vandals soon after installation).
A new format of the educational program -lecture-workout - is proposed to enrich the visitors' experience. Velonotte's founder, Dr. Sergey Nikitin is going to tour people "virtually" through the places that Velonotte couldn't do due to bureaucratic reasons - in cities like Vienna, Yerevan, Kazan.

The aim of this competition is to make it possible to identify and implement an integrated urban remodelling concept that meets the complex needs of an area of significant size for the efficient functioning of the city of Cluj-Napoca.
