Competition: Basic Balkan Architecture

Invitation for BBA competition

09/10/2015

On the occasion of 2nd Balkan Architecture Biennale, association Kolektiv, together with Biennale organizers, announces an open call for concept, design and production of space installation(s) and/or the setting in the gallery Kolektiv.

Authors are expected to give personal and individual interpretation of Balkan cultural diversity elements, and to reassess its characteristics through innovative implementation in space shaping. Spatial installation should be made predominantly of wood as the main construction material. All participants are encouraged to embrace the character of the exhibition gallery space as an opportunity to produce and make, rather than describe or present the project.

Competition is open to all individuals or groups who create and think in the fields of architecture and design, including final year students. Works can be submitted anonymously and in digital form, until 8th November, 2015.

Winning proposal will be implemented (location: Kolektiv Gallery), and its setting will be performed personally by an author. Exhibition is going to be opened from 8th to 29th December.
