VISION COMPETITION EXHIBITION
The Vision Competition Exhibition, entitled "From Void to Value: Revisioning Tallinn's Old Town", is presented at the Tammsaare Park Outdoor Gallery in Tallinn opening on 16 October and running until 12 November 2026. The exhibition presents proposals addressing one of the most contested urban sites in Tallinn's historic centre: the southern edge of the Old Town, where an unresolved urban void continues to interrupt the connection between the medieval core and the surrounding city.
Responding to TAB 2026's overarching theme "How Much?", the competition explored the relationship between physical, social and economic value in historic urban environments. Participants were invited to develop strategies for urban resilience and social sustainability, proposing new programmes and spatial interventions for a site shaped by decades of debate, heritage protection and changing patterns of use.
The exhibition showcases the winning projects: "A Place Reclaimed" by Valerii Krinberg, Martin Sepp, Kaari Maria Tirmaste, Mikael Ristmets and Patrick Liik (1st Prize); "Reap What You Sow" by Fred-Eric Pavel and Karmo Viherpuu (2nd Prize); and "Urban Home" by Michal Romaniuk (3rd Prize), alongside five honourable mentions.
