Through our contests we want to stimulate and develop critical thinking and creative skills in theoretical thinking about the future of cities, reinforcing the importance that art, architecture and design have in their development.
We recognize the value of ideas and know the impact they may have on our future!!
Description
The eco design, sustainable architecture, new materials, concepts and technologies are compelling issues in the societies of the future and the involvement of the whole community is imperative. In an era of globalization where communication was dominated by the technological revolution, there is the need to rethink the cities and how Man can relate in a global World as well as rethink the economic, social and cultural patterns of contemporary societies.
The young creatives and thinkers are a precious commodity that we value a lot. We want to give them a voice.

Favela
Dumping, scarcity, droughts, shortages, and the need to survive raised thousands of people against a government that, at the expense of taxes, intended to turn land into money.
Favela ceased to be just a broad bean-shaped medicinal plant, which gave its name to the hill where it was born, to become what to this day still characterizes this life force that is conflicted daily between the desire to flee and to stay.
In the favela, fear faces security and insecurity defies trust.
A place where there are people, families and communities who carry their stories on their backs.
