Moontopia, un concorso per chi vuole progettare sulla Luna

concorso di idee e di design

Eleven Magazine indice il concorso internazionale di idee e di design Moontopia, in occasione del quale invita architetti, designer, artisti, accademici e visionari provenienti da tutto il mondo a progettare la prima colonia lunare autosufficiente per vivere, lavorare, svolgere ricerche e, con un po' di fantasia e uno sguardo proiettato verso il futuro, godersi una vacanza. 

I progetti dovranno essere inviati online entro l'11 novembre 2016.

In 1969, the space race peaked with the success of the Apollo 11 mission bringing the first man to walk on the moon.

Today, nearly half a century later, new technological advances and a renewed desire to explore space are igniting a new race. This time, however, we are tired of just walking. We want to inhabit! But how?

Eleven is excited to announce its first international ideas and design competition on space architecture.

We invite thinkers, architects, designers, artists, academics and visionaries from around the world to imagine innovative solutions for Moontopia - the first ever self-sufficient lunar colony designed for living, working, researching and - why not - a little space tourism too. How will mankind exist on the moon? You decide.

We would like to have you call the shots of how you want to interpret this challenge. There are no right or wrong solutions, just endless possibilities! Don't see the brief as constricting imagination. Feel free to develop it in the direction you see fit. We seek true originality and proactive change through design. We encourage you to have fun, explore possibilities and release your creative problem-solving genius.

ELEGIBILITY 

Copetition is opened to architects, designers, artists, academics and visionaries from around the world.
