— unite the property complex into a single concept;
— integrate the territory into the urban context.

Requirements for projects:

— mandatory requirement to ensure the accessibility and inclusiveness of the territory and buildings.

1st Prize — 5,000 €
2nd Prize — 3,350 €

Participation in the Competition is free. Competition participants do not pay the registration fee. Given the restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic concerning transportation, participants from Ukraine can order the printing of presentation boards from the Organizing Committee. For foreign participants, this option is mandatory to avoid delays in sending competition tablets (presentation boards).

Architects are invited to participate in the competition. To submit a competitive project the author can form a team, being its leader or participant. The team must include an architect, whose qualification certificate (or a relevant for your country document) was added during registration. Students can participate in the competition as part of the team.
