Libraries, public markets, cultural centers, galleries and museums: they are probably the most desirable projects in an architectural office portfolio. Not only that ensure recognition and publicity value, but because, beyond profit, aesthetic or record, the stakes are political and social transformation.

Architectural Competitions – Campina and Cluj

Questions for arch. Dorin Stefan

How does it feel to be the winner of a large international architectural competition, which are the secrets of creating such a project, how can you get higher on the pages of architectural journals, how to conquer the world from Romania and many other things that you wanted to they learn about Flying Observatories.

The winners of the Bucharest Architecture Biennale 2010 presented their projects and the ideas behind them. How do they see the directions in which we grow, how to relate to current practice in the west or east, which is the key to success in the Romanian context and any other questions is waiting for the answer in this meeting – debate. 

The most avant-garde contemporary art and technology festival in Europe, with the strangest future projects. Yet this year’s edition of Ars Electronica is speaking about a new philosophy of sustainability. Ideas that could change tomorrow’s corporate world, the architecture of the future and why not yourself. Start the repairs. 

People meet in architecture is the theme of the Venice Biennale – 2010, curated by Kazuyo Sejima, one of the most important figures in contemporary architecture.For this edition, the Japanese curator wants to speak directly about space, transforming the whole event in a live demonstration of architecture’s power to respond to economic, cultural and social changes. Insight, answers, problems or questions about the essence of architecture and the space inhabited by people.
