Offener Ideenwettbewerb für Student*innen
Wettbewerbsaufgabe
Ungeachtet einer Vielzahl von technologischen Fortschritten, darunter Videokonferenzen und Drohnen, wird die weltweite Ausbreitung von Flughäfen nach wie vor durch den globalen Handel und eine ungebremste Nachfrage nach Reisen vorangetrieben.
Wenngleich das Flughafenterminal - vor einem Jahrhundert konzipiert - eine relativ neue architektonische Typologie ist, hat es seit seiner Gründung die gleiche Bedeutung wie die wichtigsten öffentlichen Gebäude: Rathäuser, Gerichtsgebäude, Bibliotheken, Museen und Theater. Flughäfen sind jedoch in einzigartiger Weise komplex und mehr als nur Verkehrsknotenpunkte mit hohem Verkehrsaufkommen. In zunehmendem Maße sind Flughäfen auch Arbeitsstätten, Handelszentren, Freizeiteinrichtungen und kulturelle Ressourcen.
Fentress Global Challenge (FGC) ist ein jährlich stattfindender internationaler Design-Wettbewerb für Studenten. Seit seiner Einführung im Jahr 2011 haben sich Tausende von Beiträgen aus über 75 Ländern um höchste Auszeichnungen beworben. FGC steht für eine außergewöhnliche Auseinandersetzung mit der Zukunft der Architektur und treibt auf diese Weise das Streben nach innovativem Design in der öffentlichen Architektur weiter voran.
Competition assignment
Despite a multitude of technological advances including video conferencing and drones, the proliferation of airports worldwide continues to be spurred on by global commerce and an unrelenting demand for travel.
While the airport terminal—conceived a century ago—is a relatively new architectural typology, it has since its inception held equal importance with quintessential civic buildings: city halls, courthouses, libraries, museums, and theaters. Yet, airports are uniquely complex and they are more than just high volume transportation hubs. Increasingly, airports are also workplaces, centers of commerce, recreational outlets, and cultural resources.
Fentress Global Challenge (FGC) is an annual international student design competition. Since its inception in 2011, thousands of entries from over 75 countries have competed for top honors. FGC represents an extraordinary exploration into the future of architecture, and in so doing, continues to advance the pursuit of innovative design in public architecture.
