One axonometric, one urban block, cero physical laws!
SUMMARY //
In 2020 we started the second phase of competitions to address the issues of tomorrow.
In line with our style we propose 9+2 themes – eleven critical topics to work on. Rather than a program, a research ecosystem composed of various competitions running in parallel and exploring the same theme from different perspectives.
Our exploration journey will continue with theme five: VIRTUAL.
BRIEF IN SHORT //
Participants are asked to design a visionary concept for an urban block that responds to the requirements of the metaverse environment and one axonometric projection to represent it, with absolute freedom of interpretation, technique and level of abstraction. Even the concept of axonometric itself can be questioned in order to craft the most expressive way to represent the design.
ELIGIBILITY //
Non Architecture Competitions are open to all human beings, from every age and cultural background, working in groups or individually. The registration fee is paid per team, regardless of how many members form it. Personal information of all the team members can be uploaded during the submission procedure of the final drawing.
WHY PARTICIPATE //

- Give space to your creativity by solving a given challenge, it is satisfying!
- Get to know better your team or your own design-thinking skills, it is fun!
