PHILOSOPHY

The competition does not prescribe a specific location or program

The starting point is a theme to reflect upon in relation to concrete

Participation can be

either part and parcel of the regular studio work,

or « private » (independently from the curriculum)

Participation can also consist of reworking/translating/adapting

a design exercise from the curriculum [keeping in mind the deliverables !]

Proposals may range from objects, furniture and architectural details to housing,

landscape interventions, complex buildings, infrastructure, structural systems...

CURATOR and JURY CHAIRMAN CDC7 Belgium

‘From the architect’s first conceptual idea on,

an interplay between spatial form and structural concept will be sought for

to obtain maximum coherence.’

‘In close relation with the architects and other advising team members

a number of design-cycles is organized to confront ideas

which gradually result in a global concept of coherence

wherein structure is (be it hidden) fully present.’
