    CENTER FOR URBAN FARMING COMPETITION
    Honorable Mention - $100

    suckerPUNCH: describe your project.

    Nikolay Hristov Ivanov: Fiber Garden is generating a micro cilmate (for the Scientific Research Center) on the base of urban farming through natural patterns. The main concept is emergence of three interrelated layers: skin – solar panels, skeleton – sprinkling/watering system and the green layer - plants. The generated pattern is based on the sun direction and allows the distributed solar panels to collect and transform sun energy. It also keeps a certain level of porosity to allow enough natural light to get indoors for the plants layer.

    gijo paul GEORGE / hend ALMATROUK: A frozen trajectory becoming an urban mnemonic device inspired the design of the new facade for the Pushkinsky cinema. A witness to history’s turbulences and cycles of change, the Pushkinsky (originally Rossiya) personify the very definition of metamorphosis and change. Having much in common with the movies she exhibits, she saw her young days in the limelight as well as a steady decline and fall from grace.Emerging again as the most important cinema in the glamerous new Moscow, it is her time again in the spotlight, only this time with a flourish.

    han TANG: The aim for this design is to create a visionary icon for Parramatta’s CBD by introducing a world-class urban experience art center defined by hybrid urban environments. Different functional spaces are woven together by way of an elevated Concourse, creating a unified whole which has significant presence in the city. The Concourse is a bridging element which acts as circulation for the art center but also as a commercial zone which includes lively urban activities such as shopping, restaurants, bars, and other public amenities. It will be a 24 hour space which will support the theater functions but also operate independently.
