Премия Non Architecture за лучшие нереализованные проекты
Часто перспектива реализации проекта заставляет архитекторов пожертвовать творческой составляющей и действовать «приземленно». Премия Non Architecture оценивает лучшие студенческие работы, конкурсные и бумажные проекты, которые создавались без перспективы воплощения. Работы принимаются в четырех категориях: архитектура, городское планирование, ландшафт, абстракции.
Construction is the most obvious reward for an architectural project, but very often in order to make things buildable, architects have to sacrifice innovation and creativity and surrender to business as usual.
Non Architecture launches an award to honour those projects that didn’t take that approach and are unbuilt and unbuildable, either because they were designed to stay as such, or because their innovative charge brought them into the realm of the unpractical. We want to reward their innovative and experimental character with an award, organized in 4 categories – Urban, Landscape, Architecture and Aspatial.
By recognizing remarkable achievements in architecture, we intend to highlight exemplary projects that serve as inspiration for practitioners. Equally important, these awards elevate the potential for positive impact that an exploratory approach in architecture has on the future of the profession.
The award is open for student works, conceptual designs, competition entries, research & speculative initiatives of all sorts. Projects can have an exploratory or critical purpose, as long as they were not designed with the primary goal of being built.
