From the site:
The Municipality of Maribor, together with the Union of Architects of Maribor and under supervision of UIA and ZAPS (Slovenian Chamber for Architecture and Spatial Planning), calls for :
The international, public, anonymous, single-stage architectural ideas competition for the arrangement of the river Drava area in the central part of the city.

150 Euro?! can we just organize competitions instead of making them?!
ReplyDeleteI know a guy who worked for 2-3 years in Slovenia. Will see what he knows about it.
Maybe stupid, but should we do all three sites? I was just reading over the rules and the 150Euro fee allows you to do all three if you want.
ReplyDelete1. Urban Plan with Bureau East
2. Bridge with Scott Snelling
3. Gallery with just Family
All in a little over a month, mid Jan to mid Feb. Terrible idea. Lets do it!

ReplyDeleteare u member of the AIA? they say
ReplyDelete"You have the right to participate if your country’s National Architects Association is a member of the UIA. "
also, u can't check what needs to be submitted until u actually register. good thing though we save some money if i do print/ send things from here. although i would also need them a few days in advance.
let's register and we'll see along the way how many we can pull off.
the koreans didn't answer, did they?
ReplyDeleteIm not a member of the UIA, though even if I was I assume its where the registered architect is right? Which would be you. Is Romania a UIA country? I dont even know what UIA is.
ReplyDeleteAnd no, no word from the Koreans.
UIA is the International Union of Architects, the AIA and all other national org are part of it.
ReplyDeleteBtw, I am not a registered architect.
i'll check the eligibility
