JURY

IN 2017 CHART ARCHITECTURE ASK PARTICIPANTS TO DESIGN AND CREATE PAVILIONS BASED

ON THE LIVING CITY, CHALLENGING APPLICANTS TO ADDRESS THE OPEN SOURCE PARADIGM,

THEREBY CONTRIBUTING TO THE GLOBALLY IMPORTANT DISCUSSION ON SUSTAINABLE

URBANISATION, RENEWABLE RESOURCES AND THE URGENT NEED FOR EXPERIMENTATION WITH

UPCYCLING AND THE REUSE OF MATERIALS.

THE CITIES WE INHABIT ARE LIVING AND GROWING, ALREADY 54 PER CENT OF THE WORLD’S

POPULATION LIVES IN URBAN REGIONS, AND PROJECTIONS SUGGEST THIS WILL CONTINUE TO

INCREASE UNTIL AT LEAST 2050 WHEN IT IS ESTIMATED THAT AROUND TWO THIRDS OF THE

WORLD’S POPULATION WILL RESIDE IN URBAN CENTRES. WITH THIS ACCELERATING URBANISATION

ACROSS THE WORLD, WITHIN THE NEXT 15 YEARS WE WILL HAVE TO PRODUCE 35 PER CENT MORE

FOOD AND 40 PER CENT MORE CLEAN WATER.

CHART ENCOURAGES APPLICANTS TO APPROACH THE THEME OF THE LIVING CITY BY

CHALLENGING CONVENTIONAL CONCEPTIONS OF SUSTAINABLE CONSTRUCTION AND TO CREATE

INNOVATIVE TEMPORARY SPACES THAT PROMOTE POSITIVE SUSTAINABILITY AND URBANITY.

APPLICANTS SHOULD INVESTIGATE NEW AND ALTERNATIVE AFFORDABLE MATERIALS AND

GROUND-BREAKING ASSEMBLY METHODS THAT ACTIVELY PROMOTE THE REUSE AND REPURPOSE

OF MATERIALS WITHOUT COMPROMISING THE ARCHITECTURAL FUNCTIONALISM AND QUALITY.

IN THEIR DESIGNS, CHART ARCHITECTURE PARTICIPANTS SHOULD EDUCATE THEIR AUDIENCE,

PRESENTING PAVILIONS THAT HAVE INVENTIVE DUAL FUNCTIONS, INVESTIGATIVE RECYCLING

METHODS, COMMUNITY OBJECT EXCHANGES AND INNOVATIVE FABRICATION METHODS.

APPLICANTS SHOULD CONSIDER HOW THEY, AS THE NEXT GENERATION OF CITY BUILDERS AND

INHABITANTS, CAN BOTH EDUCATE THEIR AUDIENCE ON THE PRESSING ISSUE OF SUSTAINABILITY

AND ALSO EXPERIMENT AND PRESENT SOLUTIONS. THE PAVILIONS AT CHART ARE A FANTASTIC

OPPORTUNITY FOR YOUNG ARCHITECTS TO EXPERIMENT AND DEVELOP THEIR IDEAS. PROPOSED

DESIGNS SHOULD BE TRANSFORMATIVE, INTERACTIVE, SPATIALLY INTERESTING, TECTONICALLY

QUALIFIED AND MATERIALLY INNOVATIVE.

FOR CHART ARCHITECTURE 2017, CHART INVITES PARTICIPATING TEAMS TO CLEARLY SPECIFY

YOUR OWN THEORIES, ETHOS AND THE BASIS OF YOUR PAVILION WITHIN THE WIDER THEME

OF THE LIVING CITY. YOUR DESIGNS SHOULD EMPHASISE THE WAY IN WHICH THE ARCHITECT

CAN PLAY A ROLE IN SHAPING AND ACTIVATING THE URBAN ENVIRONMENT THROUGH

TEMPORARY STRUCTURES THAT CAN FUNCTION BEYOND THE SETTING OF CHART AT KUNSTHAL

CHARLOTTENBORG.

EVALUATION

THE SUBMISSIONS WILL BE ASSESSED ON A NUMBER OF CRITERIA BY THE JURY. THE JUDGES ARE

LOOKING FOR:

IDENTITY/ORIGINALITY

HOW DOES YOUR PROPOSAL RELATE TO THE LIVING CITY? WHAT DOES YOUR PROPOSAL BRING TO

CHART? HOW DOES IT STAND OUT?

FUNCTIONALITY

HOW DOES YOUR PROPOSAL RESPOND TO THE PROGRAMME CHOSEN? THE PAVILIONS HAVE TO

BE FUNCTIONAL FOR THE PARTNERS THAT WILL OCCUPY THE SPACE. THINK CREATIVELY AND WITH

SIMPLICITY IN TERMS OF CONSTRUCTION. HOW DO THE FUNDAMENTALS OF YOUR DESIGN ENABLE

ITS REUSE?

THIS YEAR’S PROGRAMME CHALLENGES THE CONVENTIONS OF PROMOTING SUSTAINABILITY.

ONCE AGAIN, EACH PAVILION WILL HOST EITHER A GASTRONOMICAL PARTNER OR SPACE10

DURING CHART ART FAIR ACTIVATING THE MAIN COURTYARD OF KUNSTHAL CHARLOTTENBORG

THROUGHOUT THE DURATION OF THE FAIR.

DURING CHART THE FIVE PAVILIONS WILL ALLOW THE GASTRONOMIC PARTNERS TO PREPARE,

PRESENT AND SERVE THEIR MENU. THE PAVILIONS WILL BE USED BY 3-4 STAFF MEMBERS WHO

NEED A WORKING AREA AND SPACE FOR STORAGE AND KITCHEN EQUIPMENT E.G. FRIDGES. THE

PAVILIONS SHOULD ALSO BE ABLE TO ACTIVATE THE COURTYARD.

IT IS UP TO YOU WHETHER YOU DECIDE TO DESIGN FOR A CHOSEN PARTNER, OR A PAVILION,

WHICH CAN BE ADAPTABLE TO ANY. IF CHOSEN, CHART WILL ASSIGN YOU WITH A PARTNER WE

FIND BEST SUITS YOUR CONCEPT.

4 X GASTRONOMIC PARTNERS

SPACE10 IS A FUTURE-LIVING LAB ON A MISSION TO INVESTIGATE THE FUTURE OF URBAN LIVING

BY DETECTING MAJOR CHALLENGES THAT WILL IMPACT PEOPLE ON A GLOBAL SCALE, AND

EXPLORING POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS. THE OVERALL GOAL IS TO CREATE OPPORTUNITIES FOR A

BETTER, MORE MEANINGFUL AND SUSTAINABLE WAY OF LIVING IN THE FUTURE.

THIS YEAR, SPACE10 INVITES YOU TO CREATE AN URBAN SANCTUARY THAT ADDRESSES THE

NEEDS OF OUR TIME, AND APPEALS TO SOCIAL INTERACTION AND LOCAL INVOLVEMENT. THE

PAVILION SHOULD ENABLE AN ARCHITECTURAL PAUSE IN THE HECTIC URBAN LANDSCAPE, AND

THROUGH ITS DESIGN SIGNAL A MINDFUL OASIS WHERE PEOPLE CAN UNWIND AND INTERACT.

FURTHERMORE, THE PAVILION SHOULD BE DESIGNED TO BE RELEASED AS OPEN SOURCE AFTER

THE FAIR.

DURING THE DESIGN DEVELOPMENT PHASE, YOU WILL HAVE MEETINGS WITH SPACE10 TO FURTHER

DISCUSS THEIR NEEDS. AFTER THE FAIR, THE PAVILION DESIGN WILL BE RELEASED AS OPEN

SOURCE IN COLLABORATION WITH CHART AND SPACE10. SPACE10 WILL RECEIVE THE PAVILION TO

FURTHER PROMOTE THE OPEN SOURCE PARADIGM, RESOURCE AND REUSE.

THE PAVILION DESIGN WILL BE RELEASED WITH A CREATIVE COMMONS ATTRIBUTION 4.0

INTERNATIONAL LICENSE, MEANING THAT THE DESIGN CAN BE SHARED, COPIED AND BUILD UPON

WITHOUT ASKING PERMISSION. HOWEVER, THE ORIGINAL WORK SHOULD ALWAYS BE CREDITED TO

CHART, SPACE10 AND THE ARCHITECTS.
