Hornachuelos Downtown Reactivation, un concorso per far rivivere il centro storico

concorso di architettura

Il reTH!NKING competitions team indice il concorso di architettura Hornachuelos Downtown Reactivation, con il quale vuole invitare studenti e architetti a progettare la ripresa del centro storico per lo sviluppo di una nuova abitabilità nel presente. L'obiettivo del concorso è quello di creare uno spazio unico e affascinante, una location dall'inestimabile valore naturale e culturale per lavorare, divertirsi e osservare.

La competizione mira a far rivivere il centro di Hornachuelos, valorizzando la sua eredità culturale. Ai partecipanti sarà richiesto di intervenire ripristinando gli edifici storici, attribuendo loro nuove funzioni e usi, progettando itinerari culturali, integrando la progettazione ai cambiamenti naturali e percependo il centro storico come uno spazio unitario dotato di un'identità culturale propria e definita.

I progetti vincitori potranno accedere alla seconda fase del concorso ed essere concretamente realizzati entrando a far parte di un piano speciale di progettazione.
