ARKxSITE lancia un concorso di idee internazionale - riservato a studenti di architettura, giovani architetti e professionisti under 40 - finalizzato allo sviluppo di una proposta per il Site Theatre da inserire su un promontorio vicino la Fortezza di Baleal, in Portogallo.
Il teatro dovrà costituire una destinazione culturale nuova e fornire un luogo per spettacoli all'aperto finalizzati al miglioramento dell'esperienza vissuta all'interno del paesaggio. I partecipanti dovranno elaborare proposte capaci di stabilire un contatto con la terra, con il cielo e con il mare, permettendo a pubblico e artisti di osservare e diventare partecipi dello scenario naturale offerto dal luogo.
La Fortezza di Baleal è un landmark particolarmente importante situato all'interno di un luogo straordinario. Un potentissimo scenario naturale dove i resti della Fortezza si ergono dal paesaggio e insieme alla scogliera erosa dal vento definisce un posto unico e degno di nota.
Dovendo immaginare un intervento progettuale in un luogo di questo genere, ai partecipanti è richiesto di porre particolare attenzione al rispetto e alla celebrazione del sito e, soprattutto, delle rovine esistenti, offrendo ai visitatori futuri un'esperienza unica come il posto in cui si trovano.
This international one-stage architecture ideas competition invites all architecture students, young architects and young professionals with a degree in architecture studies (≤ 40 years old) to develop and submit compelling ideas for the design of a Site Theatre located on a site promontory near the Fortress of Baleal, in Baleal, Peniche, Portugal.
The Site Theater aims to create a new cultural destination and provide a place for open-air performances to enhance the experience within the landscape. The Site Theatre is a place to engage with the land, the sky and the sea, where performers and audience are both participants and observers while the landscape becomes a natural scenic venue.
The Baleal Fortress is a significant landmark located within a remarkable place; a powerful natural scenery where the remains of the Fortress rises from the landscape and together with the cliff surfaces eroded by the wind are notable features within this setting.
When generating a vision for an intervention located within such a spectacular place, it is essential that each design proposal emphasises, respects and celebrates the site and existing ruins, while providing visitors with a unique experience.
