Open submission architectural competition inspired by WB Yeats' Poem «The Lake Isle of Innisfree».
В 1892 году Уильям Батлер Йейтс написал стихотворение «Озерный остров Иннисфри» (The Lake Isle of Innisfree; оригинал и русский перевод), посвященное его умиротворенной красоте.
В 2015 в Ирландии будет широко отмечаться 150-летие со дня рождения этого великого поэта, лауреата Нобелевской премии по литературе. В рамках празднования конкурсантам предлагается разработать павильон, вдохновленный стихотворением Йейтса об острове Иннисфри; павильон, отражающий гармонию архитектуры, поэзии и природы.

The competition is for the design of a temporary architectural intervention for the island of Innisfree which will mediate between Yeats’ poetic vision and contemporary architectural ideas. It presents a unique opportunity to design and build in a highly sensitive and protected location, beyond the constraints imposed by a permanent building. It is envisaged that the competition will attract innovative and challenging architectural and sculptural proposals from national and international architects, artists and collaborators. It should also demonstrate the potential of architecture to enhance the experience of an area of outstanding natural beauty.
Entrants will have the opportunity to be part of Yeats 2015, a worldwide event with a considerable legacy. This competition will be a significant cultural moment which will contribute further to dialogue on the role of architecture and creativity, with the potential for experimental and time-based interventions. This is also a unique opportunity for place making in an environmentally sensitive context. The temporary status of the intervention is a crucial consideration as it is envisaged that the harmony of the island remains uninterrupted.
