the competition invites creatives from all around the world to imagine marstopia - the first human colony on mars - and in doing so, begin to define martian vernacular design.
today, science fiction dreams of turning mankind into a multi-planetary species are well within our reach. as scientific and technological breakthroughs are fueling a renewed space race, it is becoming increasingly clear that the colonization of mars is within our lifetime.
in the contemporary discussion of martian colonization, the focus is predominantly on the science and technological aspects of getting to the red planet. as these fields pave the way for mars to become an opportunity for groundbreaking exploration, where does this leave the creative industries? despite dates being set for missions to mars, there is still a huge gap in the field of martian architecture and extra-terrestrial design.
this gap represents the genesis of marstopia, a competition designed to get the creative community engaged with this new field and generate visions of future worlds beyond ours.
what does martian vernacular design look like? you decide. competition website: https://www.eleven-magazine.com/?competition=marstopia
