The second phase of the 3rd Richard H. Driehaus Architecture Competition is now underway. This international contest aims to "promote the practice of architecture and urbanism that preserves and continues local traditions" in the Spanish cities of Guadix (Granada), Olite (Navarra), and Béjar (Salamanca).
The role of architecture is to create strong and sustainable identities for cities and their communities. With well-conceived design, we can help things run more fluidly, improve people’s well-being, and make life more enjoyable. Every project is a unique expression of the ethos of its users, climate, and context. A built environment can be seen as a point of departure: it is where the architecture starts to communicate, the point from where it starts to interact with the public and its users.
Followed by a talk with Jette Hopp of SNØHETTA.
