Infinite Strip 2006 Architecture Competition
August 10, 2006 | Levent OZLER
Arquitectum, an enterprise dedicated to the organization of architectural contests, is pleased to welcome all students and bachelors from around the world to its 2nd Conceptual Contest "Infinite Strip 2006", to take place from July until December.
Arquitectum has decided in this second conceptual contest to try to contribute via a topic that is not only "informative" but also "formative", in the sense that it contributes to the discourse of architectural practice as well as offers a specific exercise in modern teaching methodology.
It is for this reason that we are pleased to invite all students and recent graduates of architecture throughout the world to participate in the Contest for Ideas "Infinite Strip".
The Infinite Strip is a method for teaching design that, in comparison with many teaching systems used in contemporary design workshops, takes into account indispensable aspects of Modern Architecture that have been partially or totally forgotten.
The method of the "Infinite Strip" tries to rescue basic principles of modern architecture in its "heroic" phase (Mies, Le Cobusier, Terragni) and tries to add a new and contemporary significance.
