descriptionFor the sixteenth time the competition "Housing of the future" was decided. The competition was attended by male and female students of the Faculty of Architecture at the Gdansk University of Technology.
The subject of the competition was to propose a vision for the formation of residential complexes, both on an urban and architectural scale, in an area selected from a pool of five competition topics. The design had to take into account the diversity of the housing offer, while shaping complete urban structures with the participation of the necessary infrastructure and creating connections with neighboring areas.
- Second-year architecture students faced the challenge of designing the settlements of the future. Places that not only meet a variety of housing needs, but also fit perfectly into the urban fabric, creating harmonious connections with the surrounding areas. From among the submitted works, the jury awarded the 6 best projects! Congratulations to all for their creative approach and bold visions," said Mayor Piotr Grzelak.
