Switch is a unique and innovative platform designed to facilitate architecture and design fraternity with a chance to step into the shoes of great architects and re-design/re-create some of their best works of architecture.We are an international idea-based architectural competition website with a format that allows students and architecture professionals to create their own perspective of architectural icons keeping the site and programmatic constraints intact.
Description
The aim of the competition is to re-create the iconic museum in NYC by the legendary architect Frank Lloyd Wright at the same exact site but with an entirely new perspective by the participants.The competition offers a chance to re-design the museum created by the master himself, with a similar intent to break from the prevalent conventionality in designing a museum and gallery space and create an innovative and extraordinary built form.
The in-situ replacement of the existing museum should be iconic and revolutionary, capable of transforming the urban form of NYC in a similar or a more powerful way. The response should be FLW-like, where he constantly strived to devise new architecture systems that were ahead of his time and were hailed as wonders of the modernist movement.
