Competition for the urban-architectural concept design for the BADEL SITE redevelopment

The City of Zagreb as promotor, and Zagreb Society of Architects (DAZ) as organizer, are launching an open, on-line, one-stage, anonymous, ideas Competition for the urban-architectural conceptual design for the Zagreb Badel Site redevelopment.

Competition purpose and goal: to obtain a quality urban design concept that meets all the functional and economic criteria required to create a new and modern segment of the city centre, while both adding value to the wider urban area and providing a reminder of the historical development of the site. The site area should become a new factor in the definition of identity of this part of the city as well as the central point for the most relevant activities in the fields of business, tourism, hospitality, culture and art, while remaining a location providing quality everyday life environment for its inhabitants both today and tomorrow.

The competition is open to all professionals, who hold a master's degree in architecture or have completed a five-year course of study and are graduate engineers in the field of architecture and urban planning.
