Charlie Hebdo Portable Pavilion

architecture competition

Bee Breeders bandisce un nuovo concorso di idee sul tema del padiglione trasportabile dedicato al diritto della libertà di parola. Il padiglione ospiterà mostre per ricordare ai visitatori che le libertà civili, che spesso diamo per scontate, è un lusso che non tutte le persone possono godere e per informare sulla situazione di altri paesi.

Bee Breeders new architecture competition - the Charlie Hebdo Portable Pavilion - looks to help spread the message of the importance of the right to free speech.

The purpose of the structure is to deconstruct the idea of free speech, reminding visitors that freedom of speech is a luxury not all people can enjoy and educate people about the situation in other countries around the world.

The recent events in Europe have highlighted how the civil liberties we often take for granted are denied to many all around the world. The Charlie Hebdo Portable Pavilion will enable exhibitions on the importance of free speech to travel the world and work to leave a positive lasting impression.

The purpose of the structure is to deconstruct the idea of free speech, reminding visitors that freedom of speech is a luxury not all people can enjoy. The structure should educate people about the situation in countries around the world, and as such participants must think about both the design of the pavilion as well as the contents of the exhibition. The two aspects should be interconnected and demonstrate that sacrificing the liberty of free speech in exchange for security is something that cannot be tolerated. 

The competition is not connected to a specific site; the pavilion should be transportable to any location around the world, and as such participants must consider how it can be easily dismantled and reassembled in different locations. Participants are allowed to select any siteto demonstrate their designs - given that they explain why they chose that site in particular - but the design concept must be equally suitable in any location around the world.

Competition is open for all. No professional qualification is required. Design proposals can be developed individually or by teams (4 team members maximum).
