new USA: A House for Anton Chekov
The deadline of this competition is July 15th, 2010.
We could call this house The House of Subtext. Strangely, this is supposed to be a house for a man whose pseudonym at one time, in translation, meant: Man without a Spleen. But was he really a "man without a spleen...?" We ask you, then, to design a "house of mood, " a house whose life is "submerged in the text," as his own work is. A house that refuses the heroics, or, to be more exact, the explicit, self-advertising forms of heroism, since there is with certainty a form of heroism in a doctor, like Chekhov, who treated the poor without charging them and who built public buildings for them, with his own money... and who refused to complain, despite the fact that he was seriously ill, of an illness that actually shortened his life significantly.



new UK: Architects For Health: Student Design Award 2010

Registration deadline: April 1, 2010

Plans are in the works to embark on a major public campaign for expanding the structure. However, the purpose of this competition is to take the relationship between art and architecture to a higher level than that of the renovation of a specific building. "Art in Architecture" intends to generate ideas about the relationship and interaction between the two. The thematic goal is to seek images about architecture as a repository for art, revealing how art is expressed in architecture, and how art and architecture affect and are affected by each other. In focusing on the capacity of art and architecture to be transcendent, this competition's resulting exhibit will add special voice to the current debate between the "container" and the "contents" that has been taking place across the global art scene.

Serbia: Maketime -International Competition for Students on the topic of urban furniture
