Future Architecture Platform

news

Future Architecture is the first pan-European platform of architecture museums, festivals and producers, bringing ideas on the future of cities and architecture closer to the wider public. Opening up a broad discussion, 14 European organisations have joined forces to create a platform that is looking for visions from individuals and collectives to rethink the future of architecture in Europe.

The goals of Future Architecture are:

• Think Future. They will highlight the emerging generation of talents in various disciplines and explore and share their ideas about the future of cities and architecture.
• Exchange. 14 organisers from 13 countries will create a pan-European programme, tour emerging creators and present their ideas at exhibitions, conferences, lectures and workshops, in books and on the web.
• Raise awareness. The platform will make complex issues of architecture comprehensible to everyone, and promote a more sustainable living environment.
• Build commitment. A Future Architecture European Quality label will recognize organisers who work with aspiring emerging talents and show their commitment to the platform objectives.

The Future Architecture platform wants to introduce and celebrate innovation, experimentation and the ideas of a generation that will design the architecture and build Europe’s cities in the years to come. It will promote European innovation, architecture, culture, knowledge and social capital through a single common platform.

After an open call ended in December 2015, 291 ideas have been proposed to be part of Future Architecture. You can check and vote them here.
