Floornature, the portal of architecture, design and culture, in collaboration with Iusve, organizes the first edition of an architecture competition for graduates of the new millennium. The goal of the Floornature International Architecture Contest Next Landmark is to find original projects by young architects, granting them visibility and the possibility of international acclaim. The competition is open to design professionals (architects, engineers, landscape designers, urban planners) from all over the world who have taken a degree after 1 January 2000. Awards go to projects and research that meet criteria of originality and ecosustainability, and all those ideas that focus on the relationship between man, architecture and the territory. The competition is divided into two categories: First Work, including completed projects, and Research, including projects not built in the areas of urban renewal, ideal architecture, degree projects and theoretical reflections on contemporary living. The jury, composed of international professionals, will select one winner for each section for a 3-day trip to Venice during the Architecture Biennial. Winning projects will be exhibited in a collateral event and published at www.floornature.com with a video interview. There are also two special mentions for each section.
