Urban Block Collection
BRIEF
Design of an architectural language for a collection of urban blocks
We developed a system of standardisation and customisation of urban blocks. This consists of a large number of block volumes that can be used depending on different contexts (the collection). The architecture (facades and detailed massing) of this collection is the design task of this competition. The architectural language is a toolbox with which all modifications of the building volumes can be designed. The participants are asked to demonstrate their approach on four elements of the collection: a small block, a large block, an urban villa and a tower.
The aim of the competition – Selection of 2-5 winners
The aim of the competition is to select 2-5 companies with which we will engage in a long-lasting cooperation for the application of the architectural language in concrete projects and locations.
