    Call for Entries: Residential Stadium

    The 2018 World Cup ended just a few weeks ago. It concluded an intense month that not only impacted the world of sports but also had direct repercussions on the host country's economy, tourism, and urban planning. Russia was the chosen host country. A total of 12 stadiums across 11 Russian cities were built or renovated for the tournament. But have you ever considered what happens when Olympic stadiums, World Cup venues, or other costly sports infrastructure close after the events for which they were designed? Many host local sports clubs. Others, however, become what we call "white elephants," used as parking lots, car racing tracks, or even—as in the case of Montreal's spectacular Olympic Stadium—a flu vaccination center. In "Residential Stadium: Adaptive Reuse," Archstorming aims to analyze how architecture can provide solutions for stadium design, ensuring they can be repurposed once the sporting event has concluded.

      Architecture in crisis, or the crisis of architecture

      In Peru, the terrorism that occurred during the 1980s and early 1990s affected the population not only socially, morally, and economically, but also altered the physical perception of our urban spaces. As settings for these terrible events, cities progressively changed their appearance, accompanied by a growing segregation that we can still observe today. It is important to bring this to light, provide evidence of it, and take ownership of this "crisis" that still lingers in the air we breathe, in order to liberate the city.
