Barilla launches Barilla Pavilion International Competition, to design an architectural addition to the Barilla Headquarters in Pedrignano (Parma, Italy). The competition will aim to gather architectural proposals from both emerging designers as well as established firms to produce an architectural proposal for the design of a new multifunctional building in Pedrignano and to identify an architect or team capable of subsequently developing the project in close cooperation with Barilla.
The two-phase competition, run by Luca Molinari Studio, after a first worldwide anonymous phase, will involve a selected group of designers into a second restricted stage. An International Jury composed by well-know architects and designers along with Barilla chairman and vice-chairmen will select and declare the winning project that most successfully translates Barilla’s willingness to remove the boundaries between factories and people. The chairman Guido Barilla addresses to architects and designers a passionate request of collaboration to build the future of the Company and the Territory of Parma: “Help us to turn this dream into a reality and give visitors one more reason to come and see the Italian Food Valley”.
The deadline for the first concept design submissions is within the 1st of June 2018.
