The Future Horizon competition studio
Are you interested in participating in an international student competion?
This studio will give you the possibility of working with the topic from your special field of interest. You will work in an open, discussing, transdisciplinary way of creating together. We hope, that in every group there will be at least one student in landscape architecture. Working in a goup will provide richness in your final projects.
The strategy of the competition is to create a conceptual architectural and urban development master plan for the city of Irpin. This will be achieved by using maps, images, photomontages, digital urban views, renders, and a digital video. The aim is to capture a futuristic conceptual idea of architecture and urban planning for the city's current development, in an imagined scenario for the future horizon. The competition's approach emphasizes the importance of visual representation to convey this conceptual idea effectively. By using a combination of these techniques, the master plan will offer a comprehensive and coherent vision for Irpin's urban development that takes into account the city's current and future needs.
