What to do with an ideal idea? Should totality be attacked with totality? Can geometric order be enjoyable to live in? What is there to recycle for today’s life and new utopias of the future? We invite architects, landscape architects, urbanists, and university students in these fields to take part in the TAB 2013 Vision Competition and envision the future of an iconic circular block-housing district – Väike-Õismäe ['Little Blossom Hill']. VÄIKE-ÕISMÄE Väike-Õismäe differs from other similar neighbourhoods in Tallinn by way of its concentric plan derived from the idea of a circle-city. The district is positioned circularly as a single, complete solution around a pond in the middle.
TASK 1] find and present Väike-Õismäe’s local quality 2] develop and describe on the basis of the chosen quality a method for upcycling the Väike-Õismäe space 3] show in the competition entry the proposal’s functionality both on the scale of a detailed architectural solution [zoom-in] as well as on an urban-plan level [zoom-out].
We are looking for competition entries that are visionary, find undiscovered values and solutions that express the development opportunities of Väike-Õismäe as an enjoyable living environment.
