A Global Arena for Architecture Challenges: a platform for international competitions
Unlike outdated standard tender procedures limited to a local reach, TerraViva competitions are fully run through our digital Platform, allowing partners to share their architecture challenges with the best international designers.
Open to architects, planners and creatives from all over the world, our initiatives are able to adapt to different contexts: from architecture to urban planning, from landscape design to adaptive reuse…
Born under the guidance of the Californian architecture critic Richard Ingersoll, TerraViva started its journey as a didactic department at Politecnico di Milano, evolving in 2022 into a startup currently accelerated by B4i – Bocconi for Innovation.
Description
The Golden Sand Waterfront: Architecture Competition | As indicated by the second word in its name “Sabbiadoro” – literally “Golden Sand” – the italian town of Lignano is characterised by its expansive shoreline featuring sandy beaches with a shiny hue. Famous for its crystal clear waters and evergreen pinewood forests, every season thousands of tourists from all over the world come to this renowned summer getaway.
The competition consists in the design of a new masterplan capable of regenerating and revitalising part of the waterfront context, promoting sustainable mobility and environmental consciousness. TerraViva encourages participants to experiment with innovative and original urban solutions capable of transforming this coastal area into a thriving public space for both the local community and its seasonal visitors.
Proposals will have to contemplate both the design of a general urban strategy and the new formal and spatial image of the most representative points of the site. The intervention will take place along “Lungomare Riccardo Riva” and the specific areas to be integrated into the project will be indicated in a dedicated guide downloadable from this same website.
