"The Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona (CCCB) announces the eleventh European Prize for Urban Public Space. This biennial honorary contest, since 2000 acknowledging the best interventions to create, transform and recover public spaces in European cities, will recognise works carried out between 2018 and 2021. In a context like today’s, where climate emergency and the crisis generated by the COVID-19 pandemic show that cities around the world are facing new climatic, technological and social challenges, the value of public space is greater than ever."

International Architecture Competition - Jacques Rougerie Foundation
Register/Submit Deadline: Wednesday, Sep 14, 2022
"Every year, the International Prizes of the Jacques Rougerie Foundation - Institut de France reward bold and visionary architects, designers, artists, engineers and urban planners from all over the world who imagine the habitats of the future related to the Ocean or to Space. In 2022, the 12th edition of the Jacques Rougerie Foundation offers you to get involved in your boldest, most forward-looking projects. They must be in phase with the challenges of our backups. First based on biomimicry, an infinite source of inspiration, they will be thought out and designed in a transversal vision of knowledge. Enthusiastic more than normalized, they will demonstrate that inspiration when it intersects form, function and environment, can lead the project where it is not expected."
