              Competition for the development of an architectural concept for the Health Tech Synergy Hub (HTSH) building of the Wrocław University of Technology.

              organizer: Wrocław University of Technology, SARP Wrocław Branch | investor: Wroclaw University of Technology

              Wroclaw University of Technology, in cooperation with the Wroclaw branch of the Association of Polish Architects, has announced an implementation competition for the architectural concept of the Health Tech Synergy Hub building in Wroclaw. {More}

              Wroclaw University of Technology, in cooperation with the Wroclaw branch of the Association of Polish Architects, has announced an implementation competition to develop an architectural concept for the Health Tech Synergy Hub building in Wroclaw.

              purpose

              The purpose of the competition is to obtain the best architectural, spatial, functional-utilitarian, technical and environmentally responsible building concept for the Health Tech Synergy Hub (HTSH) Medical Technology Center building of Wrocław University of Technology, together with land development.

              terms and conditions

              The competition is an implementation competition, limited, two-stage.

              In Stage I, participants submit studies, and in Stage II they submit competition entries.

              TheHealthTech Synergy Hub (HTSH) is a newly established center at the Wrocław University of Technology, which coordinates scientific and educational activities in scientific fields conducted at the university, promoting cooperation between scientific units, business and other institutions in the field of medical technology development. Thus, the planned facility is to have both a research character - intended mainly for the realization of the mission and goals of HTSH, bringing together all units of the Wrocław University of Technology working in the sphere of medical technology, and an educational character - intended for the activities of the Medical Faculty of the Wrocław University of Technology.

              The development is planned on a plot of land between Smoluchowskiego and Wybrzeże Wyspiańskiego streets in Wrocław, adjacent to the historic B1 and B2 buildings of the Wroclaw University of Technology.

              The new development, as we read in the regulations, should be shaped in a contemporary way, respecting the demanding neighborhood - the values and forms of the existing buildings and greenery, which are part of one of the most valuable urban complexes in Wroclaw. Particular attention should be paid to the shaping of the elevations on the side of the corner square and the Oder River boulevard - Wybrzeże Wyspiańskiego Street, along which the entrances to the representative edifices of Wrocław University of Technology - the main building A-1 and building C-13 - are located.

              The upper part of the development on the side of Smoluchowskiego Street is recommended to be shaped taking into account the proximity of residential buildings and the legal requirements for sunlight and shading conditions. The way of shaping the development on the side of the western, internal service road between buildings B1 and HTSH should take into account the need for visual screening of sensitive functions.

              The roof storey of the building should be treated as the so-called fifth elevation. It is recommended to build technical installations into the volume or shape the forms of visual and acoustic shielding in a manner consistent with the expression of the building.

              The building is planned to house specialized research laboratories in areas such as biochemistry, biophotonics, biomechanics, highly specialized medical laboratories, as well as a biobank. A modern Department of Normal and Pathological Anatomy (Collegium Anatomicum), a clinical research support center, as well as a state-of-the-art magnetic resonance imaging center are planned for the building.

              The Employer's expectation is to ensure the scientific openness and accessibility for students of the various functions in the facility, from the level of general communication, but excluding selected specialized units for which, for safety, technological or sanitary reasons, this is not possible. Part of the wall surfaces of seminar rooms and selected laboratories, as far as possible for technological and sanitary reasons, are recommended to be glazed from the side of general communication.

              Competition proposals must take into account, among other things, the sustainability and life cycle criteria ofthe materials and construction technologies used. Optimal solutions for rainwater retention, the formation of a favorable internal microclimate of the building and high quality landscaping should be adopted.

                The form and internal organization of the facility are not imposed, but potential nuisances resulting from different functions should be balanced in the design. There should be two independent entrances to the facility - for patients and caregivers, and for students, employees and facility staff. Communication spaces in the facility will also be dedicated to additional recreational and therapeutic functions, and local areas for rest, play, study and waiting should be provided. The center's location among greenery should be used as an asset to allow therapeutic contact with nature.

                Around the site, there should be 10 parking spaces for patients, a minimum of 30 parking spaces for other users and 2 bus stands, as well as a therapeutic path for patients and their families. The path should be paved and equipped with landscaping.

                  The millennium anniversary of the coronation of Boleslaw the Brave as the first king of Poland falls in 2025. For this reason, on October 9, 2024, the Municipality of Glogow announced a sculpture-architectural competition for the design of a monument to the ruler and the concept of developing the area around it.

                  purpose

                  The purpose of the competition is to commemorate the coronation of Boleslaw Chrobry as the first king of Poland, which took place in 1025, and his stay in the Głogów stronghold in 1010. The monument project should enrich the space surrounding the Collegiate Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Glogow by introducing an element of high artistic value and restoring the memory of the importance of the figure of Boleslaw the Brave for Poland and the city of Glogow. The design of the monument should take into account the location conditions and substantive issues concerning the king, included in the appendices to the competition.

                  conditions

                  The competition for the design of the monument to Boleslaw Chrobry and the development of the area around it is a one-stage, limited competition.

                  The competition is addressed to professional visual artists and architects who have the experience and skills necessary to realize the monument. Participants in the competition can be individuals, legal entities or organizational units without legal personality.

                  Due to the proximity of the Gothic temple, the implementation of the monument will require the approval of the conservator of monuments, and the project will take into account the conservation guidelines. The monument will be located in the immediate vicinity of the Glogow Collegiate Church, by the eastern wall of the temple, on the Collegiate Square. The organizers of the competition leave the participants free to shape the form of the monument while maintaining the substantive, spatial and formal conditions. The composition should take into account the placement of a memorial plaque that reads: "BOLESŁAW CHROBRY (967-1025) - THE FIRST KING OF POLAND. ON THE THOUSANDTH ANNIVERSARY OF HIS CORONATION AND IN COMMEMORATION OF HIS STAY IN GŁOGOW CASTLE IN 1010- THE CITIZENS OF GŁOGOW. GŁOGÓW 2025", also written in Braille. The organizers specified the material to be used for the monument - it should be stone or bronze. The total cost of the project cannot exceed the amount of PLN 500,000.

                  Competition works must consist of three parts - descriptive, graphic and sculptural. All of them should also be submitted in electronic form.

                  The application for admission to the competition should be submitted by 24.10.2024 through the ordering platform available on the competition website.

                  organizer: City of Warsaw, Białołęka District Office

                  The Białołęka District Office of the Capital City of Warsaw has announced an architectural and urban planning competition for the development of an architectural and land use concept for an educational complex in Zielona Białołęka. The competition is recommended by the SARP.

                  The Białołęka District Office of the Capital City of Warsaw has announced an architectural and urban planning competition for the development of an architectural and land use concept for an educational complex in Zielona Białołęka. The competition is recommended by SARP.

                  purpose

                  The purpose of the competition, as we read in the regulations, is to select the best architectural concept for the school, which should be inviting, designed to stimulate children's imagination and respond to progress, as well as include environmentally friendly solutions. The solutions adopted should remain in accordance with the Architectural and Functional Standards for Elementary Schools and School-Preschool Complexes of the City of Warsaw.

                  Educational spaces should be flexible, multifunctional. When designing a school, it is important to keep in mind the possibility of using part of the building and outdoor areas after working hours for the benefit of the local community. Communication and recreational spaces inside and outside the building should provide opportunities for both larger groups and separation from the crowd, facilitated, for example, by recesses, arrangement of space under the stairs, etc. It's also good to think about greater openness, glazing between halls and circulation spaces. The building can also serve an educational function, exposing elements of infrastructure, construction.
                  It is important to pay attention to details, aesthetics, architectural education and the environment, as well as low operating costs. An important consideration is to improve the quality of educational conditions by ensuring high standards of learning for students with special needs.
                  The competition is to determine the best architectural concept in terms of visual, utilitarian and economic aspects.

                  terms and conditions

                  The competition is conducted in a limited, one-stage competition procedure.


                  The competition task is to create an architectural concept of an elementary school building with accompanying infrastructure in Zielona Białołęka, Sieczna Street, Warsaw. The designed building will serve educational purposes for students without and with various disabilities. The entire building is to consist of 24 branches for students in grades I-VIII; 8 special branches with back rooms and therapy rooms (to be located in a separate wing of the school to ensure quiet during both lessons and breaks); accompanying field facilities.


                  The building should be functionally divided into the following parts: administration, teaching block for children attending the mainstream divisions, teaching block for children attending the special divisions, canteen with kitchen facilities and dining room, sports hall with the necessary locker room and sanitary facilities, along with storage facilities for sports equipment (the part of the building where the sports hall will be located is also planned for small sports events and group meetings).


                  All educational classrooms, cafeteria, sanitary facilities, locker rooms and administration should be designed without architectural barriers to ensure free access for people with different types of disabilities.


                  The building should be designed as low-carbon (preferred: zero-carbon), with the use of RES. It is possible to realize a building with a maximum height of 12 m - three overground floors and one underground floor. Colors on the facade of the building should be subdued. It is possible to use plants on the walls of the building, when selecting plants and related design solutions, however, it should be remembered that the cost of their maintenance should not be too high. The following should be located in the free area: a biodiversity zone, areas with recreational, leisure and educational functions, playgrounds, plazas and access and parking areas.

                              Competition for the development of an architectural concept for the reconstruction and extension of the complex of the Museum of Architecture in Wrocław

                              organizer: Museum of Architecture in Wrocław, SARP Wrocław Branch

                              The Museum of Architecture in Wrocław and the Association of Polish Architects, Wrocław Branch, have announced a competition to develop an architectural concept for the reconstruction and expansion of the museum complex at 7 Bernardyńska Street .

                              The Museum of Architecture in Wrocław and the Association of Polish Architects, Wrocław Branch, have announced a competition to develop an architectural concept for the reconstruction and expansion of the museum complex at 7 Bernardyńska Street.

                              purpose

                              The purpose of the competition is to obtain the best architectural, spatial and functional-utility concept for the reconstruction and expansion of the Museum of Architecture complex in Wroclaw, together with the development of the area. The project should take into account the needs of a contemporary and unique in the country museum institution and the specific requirements resulting from the specificity of its premises - the complex of buildings of the former Bernardine monastery and the former church of St. Bernard of Siena, built at the turn of the 15th and 16th centuries.

                              terms and conditions

                              The competition is an implementation competition, limited, one-stage.

                              Within the Bernardine complex, the location of a visitor zone - a public zone and permanent and temporary exhibitions with related functions is to be envisaged. The new building, on the other hand, is to be located on the south side, to house, among other things, the building archive, reading room and exhibition preparation zone.

                              The division of the Museum of Architecture into two facilities requires the creation of a vertical communication and service node within the post-Bernardine complex to the necessary extent required to service this part of the complex. One of the tasks of the competition is to determine its optimal architectural solution, given a number of cubic and preservation constraints.

                              Within the scope of the competition concept, a proposed path for visiting the permanent exhibition, including the attic of the former church, should be presented. The concept should include user-friendly solutions for all users, including those with limitations. The design task should include full technical modernization of the museum complex in terms of installation, and acoustic comfort of the designed communication and utility interiors should be ensured.

                                  A home is a space of personal and emotional significance that evolves with us. Today's homes no longer serve only as shelter, but are becoming multifunctional spaces, adapting to our various needs - from work and recreation to the comfort of everyday life. Today's homes must therefore be more flexible and adaptable to changing lifestyles.

                                  The project should include:

                                  • a living area
                                  • toilet

                                          "Lighting fixture for busbar" competition

                                          organizer: Polish Lighting Industry Association

                                          The Polish Lighting Industry Association, in cooperation with the studios Goczołowie Architekci Studio Autorskie and OVO Grąbczewscy Architekci, as well as the SOMA agency, the organizer of the ŚWIATŁO International Fair in Warsaw, has announced a design competition - "Lighting fixture for busbar".

                                          ThePolish Lighting Industry Association, in cooperation with the studios Goczołowie Architekci Studio Autorskie and OVO Grąbczewscy Architekci, as well as the SOMA agency, organizer of the ŚWIATŁO International Fair in Warsaw, has announced a design competition - "Lighting fixture for busbar".

                                          purpose

                                          The purpose of the competition is to design a lighting fixture for a 230VAC three-circuit busbar. Busbars are technical elements accompanying lighting that allow for dynamic changes: the position of the luminaire can be changed, and light sources can be added or subtracted depending on the needs and situation.

                                          The jury expects unconventional design solutions for luminaires or entire lighting systems, which will become a complement to the architecture of interiors of different character and purpose. The designer should take into account not only the visual effect, impression and lighting function, but also the safety of use related to the distribution of light flux and electrical power. The design requires a general explanation of the principle of construction and operation.

                                          terms and conditions

                                          The competition is an open, international and one-stage competition. It is directed to people associated with architecture, art, design, and all fields of art. The competition is open to both individuals and teams. Competition entries must be own works, not previously published anywhere, not the subject of any other competition, and unencumbered by legal defects or claims of third parties.
                                          The competition task is to design a luminaire for a busbar (TEAR family of busbars from the KANLUX range). The focus should be on the design of the luminaire itself for power supply using an existing TEAR-type adapter (for 230VAC mains power supply) or publicly available DC power supplies built into the rail adapter (in-track driver for integrated LED luminaires).
                                          The luminaire can have a replaceable or non-replaceable light source. It can be decorative or designed for specialized purposes. The competition proposal should take into account the type of room and determine the function of the lighting, and then design a luminaire that fits formally and functionally into the chosen spatial and functional situation.
                                          The project should go beyond the limits of typical thinking about the construction and design of lighting fixtures and the possibilities of illuminating surfaces, spaces and objects in different types of interiors.
                                          A very important aspect of the design is the actual feasibility of the design, so that it offers the possibility of producing a prototype series. The preferred material is sheet metal.
