BRIEF
Thanks to its extraordinary historical memory and to the authenticity of its precious architectural legacy, Havana can certainly be considered a “Heritage City”. Its genuine and engaging spirit derives not only from the renowned quality of its music and rhythms, its lively street life and friendly atmosphere, but also and specially from its built environment.

On behalf of the Ministry of Culture, it is our pleasure to share with you one of the recent and most ambitious initiatives of the Albanian government: "Edition I" of the International Competition "Art in Public Spaces" for the year 2022.
The International Competition "Art in Public Spaces" invites Albanian and foreign artists to share and compete through their projects for 18 different public locations within the territory of the Republic of Albania. This call aims the artistic and urban requalification of the chosen spaces in order to give value to local identity by supporting the independent artistic scene through the spirit of fine arts education. It is central to our mission to involve the younger generations by creating a synergy between the location, the community and artists.
We hope that this initiative will engage not only independent stage artists, but also architects, urban planners, constructive-electrical engineers, etc.

ARCHITECTURE THESIS OF THE YEAR | ATY 2022

Since the beginning of time Humans have been fascinated with gravity-defying megastructures that have dominated the skies leaving a mark for civilizations to come. From the Burj Khalifa to the Empire State building, skyscrapers have been rightly viewed as a strategy to engineer more sustainable cities by emphasizing compact urban spaces.

The growing obsession with visual documentation is giving us a chance to learn more about our architectural context. After we build, the Architecture rebuilds and frames our stories. Taking a photo of a building might be easy, but telling a story through it is pretty challenging!

The AIA Flint 2022 Design Competition focuses on the existing City of Flint Municipal Center Campus located in the heart of Downtown Flint on Saginaw Street between Fifth Street and the I-69 & I-475 interchange.

The intention of the Kurula Varkey Design Forum has been to curate discussions centered around the thoughts of students and young graduates. It has constantly tried to bring the agency which students hold, to forefront; to provide a platform for students to display their opinions to the profession they’ll be entering soon. Writing becomes a tool to examine one’s own thoughts; at the same time it provides an important platform to express one’s voice to a larger community. Eager to provide a podium for contemplation and expression in the field of architecture, we’re pleased to announce ‘KVDF Writing Competition 2022’, for students of architecture, planning, design, and other associated fields to put down their ideas and opinions through persuasive, inspiring, and influential writing.

One axonometric, one urban block, cero physical laws!

As spatial practitioners, we are often presented with uncomfortable relationships, forcing us to choose sides and make decisions. We are constantly challenged to rethink how we embrace the dynamics between architecture, and external forces.

COMPETITION INTRO

It may not be your first instinct when entering a building to consider how it makes you feel, but architecture has always had a big impact on emotions. Different spaces are designed to make its inhabitants feel different things; offices can make you feel energised and productive, art galleries can make you feel thoughtful and curious, and museums can make you feel calm and intrigued. Each of these spaces are completely different from each other and are far more than just a building.

Housing construction from 4 to 1 planet is initiated by the philanthropic association Realdania and the non-profit foundation VILLUM FOUNDATION; both dedicated to how the built environment can enable quality of life and sustainability.

30 Crossing is the largest and most expensive project that the Arkansas Department of Transportation has ever undertaken. It affects many communities but has an enormous impact on the urban fabric of downtown Little Rock. This competition is intended to bring focus on how the interstate highway interacts with the city and provide visionary ideas which can influence, or affect, the future design of how our city responds to the highway.
