A Pier in the Lake
Registration Deadline: Saturday, Aug 31, 2019
Submission Deadline: Sunday, Sep 8, 2019
Following the tradition of artists and architects of the last decades, the challenge is to design a hybrid system able to explore new ways of living at Tirana's Farka Lake and, at the same time, to save it from the uncontrollable growth that it is facing today due to economic reasons. Architecture, design, and art should act as ‘guardians of the lake’. Participants are engaged to imagine a new Pier in the Liqeni i Farkës.
Macau [ Morphosis ]
Final Registration/Submission Deadline: Monday, Sep 9, 2019
Tourism and the gaming industry are vital to Macau’s growth but the city and its people suffer when lands are continuously given away to casino operators for future developments. The debate is whether Macau can continue to be a liveable city with such deficit and lack in social spaces. We seek proposals and designs of an alternative form of social and entertainment architecture that diverges from the existing gambling culture. Early bird registration closes on July 10.
