Non Architecture Competitions aims to find unconventional and unexplored design solutions in the field of architecture. From 2016 to 2019, Non Architecture organized a series of 10 competitions pointed at reinventing functional architectural typologies. In 2020, we entered a new phase structured around nine themes. Non Architecture Competitions built a Research Ecosystem with the purpose of exploring each theme from different perspectives and multiple competitions. They will all have their focus on tackling the big issues of tomorrow, by seeking nontraditional approaches in the architect’s work.
Description
What does it mean to design for the absolute opposite?
London, one of the most connected and fast-paced cities in the world, stands in contrast to the isolation of Antipodes Island. It is the literal antipode of that remote wilderness - and metaphorically, the antipode of solitude.
This competition asks you to design a space for quiet and reflection - a retreat within the city, not far away from it.
Inside the walls of Haggerston Public Baths building, imagine a place where people can pause, breathe, and reconnect with themselves. It’s not about escaping the city, but about seeing it differently - through silence, rest, and care.
