ArchINDEPENDENCEDAY
Student Competition
BRIEF
ArchINDEPENDENCEDAY is a “traveling” competition that gives designers and students the opportunity to collaborate and exchange ideas, redesigning the symbolic place of four Italian cities: La Lanterna di Genova, Il Colosseo di Roma (Anfiteatro Flavio), La Torre di Pisa and il Duomo di Milano.
The aim of the project is to raise awareness among professionals and citizens about the role, not only economic but above all cultural and social, that these places play. We decided to focus our attention on the topic of substitution and absence to stimulate a debate about situations and well-established urban contexts, reasoning in an unreal and cinematic scenario.
Above all, we want to give space to the philological process that every designer undertakes when tackling a theme: the stylistic, organizational and dimensional choices that contribute to the creation of an architectural work. For this reason, in support of the project intervention, it is required to make explicit the choices made for the realization of the project presented through a short film of maximum 3 minutes.
