ProjectNext communications agency and White Gardens business center announce an open international competition for architecture, structural-engineering, and design firms with the aim of finding the best concept for White Gardens Arcade.
Arcade is a public space between the two blocks of the White Gardens business center, which is located in the well-known White District business district. The glass-roofed space of the Arcade contains restaurants, cafes, and bars. During the warm months of the year visitors may sit out on open verandahs and listen to concerts. Arcade has a floor area of more than 800 square meters and is intended as a place where both people working at the business center and the general public may come to relax.
The INTER SPACE: WHITE GARDENS ARCADE competition is for architecture, structural engineering, and design firms and firms specializing in urban design and territorial development, as well as for individual architects and designers with a degree in architecture or design and with experience of working on real projects. Participants in the competition are asked to generate ideas and proposals for organizing the Arcade space and for helping people find their way to Arcade, with the aim of creating a new comfortable environment which people will find it interesting to visit. The competition winner will have the chance to sign a contract for realization of the project. Winners of the second and third places will receive monetary prizes. The best ideas submitted will be realized during the course of a multi-stage investment project aimed at creating a popular and attractive urban environment. Realization of the first stage of the project is scheduled for completion by the beginning of the summer season of 2016.
