Sketching Battle “Architecture and Movement” , Italien

 

Non Architecture Competitions

 

In this competition, sponsored by Rhodia, we invite creative minds to explore the power of hand-sketching through the theme “Architecture and Movement.” The goal is to create a unique hand-drawn sketch that interprets the dynamic relationship between architecture and motion, whether through a perspective, abstract, or technical drawing.

 

Participants are encouraged to explore the theme by focusing on how architecture interacts with movement, whether it’s the flow of people, light, air, or even the transformation of structures over time. The design can be inspired by an existing built environment or completely fictional, allowing for flexibility and creativity in approach.

 

This competition challenges participants to return to the fundamentals of architecture: the simplicity of pen and paper. How can your drawing capture the essence of motion within a space? How does your design express the fluidity and dynamism that define our interaction with the built environment?

 

This is an opportunity to showcase the lasting relevance of hand-drawing in architectural practice. Your sketch should push the boundaries of creativity, demonstrating how movement can be translated into visual form, and offering a fresh perspective on the role of architecture in shaping dynamic spaces.

 

Non Architecture Competitions are open to all human beings, from every age and cultural background, working in groups or individually. The registration is per team, regardless of how many members form it. Personal information of all the team members can be uploaded during the submission procedure of the final drawing.
