09 Skyscraper Competition - eVolo
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.evolo-arch.com/">http://www.evolo-arch.com</a>


The annual Skyscraper Competition organized by eVolo has become an
important architectural prize with high media attention.

The 2008 edition was published by more than ten architecture and design
magazines and by several news, fashion, and art publications.

The eVolo Book with the best projects of the first three years has
received excellent reviews and has been included in the catalog for the
Book Expo America, Frankfurt Book Fair, and Beijing Book Fair.

For the 2009 edition eVolo invites architects, engineers, and designers to
continue exploring on new ideas and concepts for vertical density.

Skyscrapers have been springing up in fast-developing countries without
careful consideration of the urban fabric, environmental effects, and
quality of life.

The 2009 competition calls for innovative designs for the XXI Century
which takes into consideration the historical and social context, the
existing urban fabric, the human scale, and the environment.

There is no restriction on site, height or shape.

The idea is to give the designers enough freedom to address the challenge
in the most creative and innovative way.

Designs must be technologically feasible and environmentally responsible.

The projects should also investigate on the urban and private space as
well as the definition of new programmes for a vertical structure.
