Architecture is about creating space for human beings. The efforts self-evident and no one would doubt would raise a question on its endeavors. But modern architecture is engrossed in its functionality; presenting all its aspects it further gives way to amazing forms and efficiency in lieu of fundamental architectural value. Therefore, the criterion for judgment for its success and failure relies on data and eye-opening exterior forms. Architecture slowly becomes a machine that has no warmth and introspection. No, rather it strives to resemble a machine.

Impacts of design decisions are far-reaching, inescapable, and indisputable. As designers, the questions we continually ask ourselves are: how does what I make impact the world at large?

Architecture in Transformation should respond to contemporary challenges and changes. What concerns us primarily is the relationship between architecture and city, as well as the one between architecture and natural environment. The competition aims at searching and constructing human space with a Spirit of Place in the increasingly fragmented cities and unordered villages, exploring environment-friendly and sustainable ideas in the information age, and integrating creative concepts with solid basic skills in architectural design. The competition requires the participants to make detailed insights and reflections on architectural development, explore complicated demands of the people nowadays for architecture and environment, pay attention to specific sites and the events happening in them, and configure viable and dynamic urban and architectural spaces, at the same time seek suitable techniques to guarantee the possibility of implementation of the project.

Natural disasters, flooding, unbalanced environmental exploitation, urban occupation of high-risk areas, exclusionary urban planning, the degradation of historical and cultural heritage, precarious housing, restrictive urban mobility, and government neglect are some of the many adversities that define the context of contemporary cities. The city emerges as a grave consequence of these disastrous events, which occur either through continuous processes or isolated episodes.
