Два района Парижа, богемный Абесс и неблагополучный Шато-Руж, хоть и расположены рядом, демонстрируют существующие сегодня во французской столице социально-экономические различия. Объединяет эти районы только наличие рынков. Участникам предлагается ответить на вопрос: можно ли сократить социальный разрыв за счет архитектурного вмешательства. Задача – создать проект одного или двух новых рынков (на одной или обеих обозначенных территориях). Стоимость реализации не должна превышать € 100 000.
пресс-релиз:
Abbesses and Chateau Rouge are demonstrative of the great socio-economic divide currently installed in Paris. Only a few hundred metres apart, the difference between plush 'bobo' Abbesses and relatively deprived Chateau Rouge could not be more distinct. They both share a common urban element, the market. This competition proposes the design of a small intervention in either or both sites to further support these social infrastructures. But through a collective architectural response, could these two sites be brought closer together?
The competition proposes the design of 1 or 2 new markets on either site with a construction cost of no more than €100,000 including tax.
The winning entry will be awarded £500 and invited to present their scheme to the local mayor to discuss procurement options.
The winning and shortlisted entries will be published in the September issue of RE: and in a variety of online publications, as well as being exhibited in the Abbesses gallery.
