Aim of course

Investigation and development of innovative approaches for the design process and improvement of design skills regarding the principles of sustainability.

Subject of course

The animal home of the city of Vienna searches a new home. The specific feature of the design task as a connection between architecture and scenery, makes the draught an unusual spatial discipline. The inhabitants of the building come from the animal kingdom. The draught should articulate the special setting of tasks in new forms of creative design. The design course is accompanied by workshops, excursion and corrections with experts and steakholders as partners in discussion (developer, town planner, user). Main focus is beside architectural, constructional-constructive also the ecologic discussion with the formulation of the topic. In a jury procedure prices of the best works will award. In addition, the prizewinners are shown in a publication.

Prizes:

1.Prize - € 1.500

2. Prize - € 1.250
