The current call for the Arquideas Grant competition seeks to recycle the pre-existing structures of an old development project located in southern Tenerife, transforming it into a thalassotherapy centre.
Construction of this massive housing development began in 2000, but it is currently inactive, incomplete and in a state of deterioration. To date, the constructed area is 4,941m2. The proposal is to create a thalassotherapy physical health centre, using the pre-existing structures and keeping in mind its relationship with the surrounding area. The challenge is to recover part or the whole of the existing modules, incorporating architectural quality to them and giving them a new use. The rest of pre-existing structures on the plot mey be used in the proposal or ignored.
The latest addition to the competitions developed by Arquideas over the last few years is the second edition of the Arquideas Grant competition. The goal of this initiative is to promote and encourage continued training for students and young architects.
The Arquideas Grant competition will provide students and young architects who wish to continue their training the opportunity to receive practical experience in an internationally respected architecture studio for a period of three months. The winner of the Arquideas Grant competition will receive a cash prize to enhance their training and the opportunity to gain practical experience in an internationally respected architecture studio.
The current call for the Arquideas Grant competition includes the collaboration of the prestigious Miralles Tagliabue EMBT architecture studio (www.mirallestagliabue.com) and the Fundació Enric Miralles (www.fundacioenricmiralles.com).
This competition is an open call aimed at individual students and young professionals working in architecture and design anywhere in the world. Participants can only present one proposal. This call is not open to any person who participated in the creation of the Arquideas Grant competition or who has dependent personal or professional ties to the organization.
