[Architecture]Squat City Competition(09.03.27)

截止日期:2009.03.27

The 4th IABR ‘Open City’ is committed to display projects that negotiate between the integrating and segregating forces and enable people of diverse cultures and lifestyles to connect and interact. ‘Squat City’ is part of the Rotterdam Biennale and deals with the increasingly common phenomenon of informal urban developments all over the world.

If ’squatting’ can be understood as the process of appropriation by which excluded local actors gain access to the territory and resources of a city, then a new type of activism should focus on the strategies and techniques that allow these informal processes to develop in a more inclusive and sustainable way.

The projects submitted for the Squat City Competition should contribute the agenda of the ‘Open City’ by proposing inventive design strategies and techniques pertaining to informal urban development.

The call goes out to projects from the fields of architecture and urban design that are based on or that support bottom-up practices and that encourage the self-empowerment of local actors, and that help formalize and legalize such developments.

Deadline for Submission: March 27, 2009.
