Rome CityVision Winners

date added: 07.07.2011

Cityvision mag is pleased to announce the winners of Rome City Vision architecture competition.

RomeCityVision is an ideas competition, which challenges architects, engineers, designers, students and creatives individuals to develop visionary urban proposals with the intention of stimulating and supporting the contemporary city, in this case Rome.

Through innovative ideas and methodologies which can improve the connection between the historical, present, and future city. CITYVISION aims to foster a critical evolution of architectural historiography.

The Italian city manifests a consistent absence of Contemporary Urban Planning and relatively ineffective architectural intervention. The objective of the competition is to drive your imagination, by the use of new materials, echo- technologies, parametric software and territorial organizations for a future vision of the city of Rome. Globalization, environmental concerns, the future historiography of the city, adaptability and emerging digital practices are some of the elements that should be taken into consideration.

The Jury of Rome City Vision architecture competition was formed by young leaders of the architecture and design fields: Juergen Mayer H., Francesco Lipari, Francesco Gatti, Felipe Escudero, Michael Caton. The Jury selected 3 winners and 9 honourable mentions among 118 participants (87 entries from 22 countries).
