The theme of the Cypriot Exhibit at the Venice Biennale is that of RELAXATION a primary activity in Cyprus. Related to the general theme of this year’s Biennale which is BEYOND ARCHITECTURE.
So we ask participating architects to go beyond their normal limits and REINTERPRET. Architects and Architectural Students from all countries are invited to compete by submitting a project that responds by attempting to REINTERPRET one, or a combination, of the eight topics listed below. There should be an attempt to reference them to the conditions of the Island of Cyprus.
Project Themes
# The beach and its provisions
# Agro tourism
# The coffee house and public open space
# Cyprus the love island
# The contemplation of the historic object
# The souvenir shop
# The boring hotel terrace
# The limitations of ‘meze & wine’ establishments
Selection will be on the basis of originality, ingenuity, wit and elegance as well as general appropriateness.
