eVolo acaba de lanzar su concurso de rascacielos para el 2015. eVolo invita a arquitectos, estudiantes, ingenieros, diseñadores y artistas de todo el mundo a participar en el eVolo 2015 Skyscraper Competition. Fundado en 2006, el Concurso de Rascacielos anual es uno de los premios más prestigiosos del mundo de la arquitectura en la gran altura. Reconoce las ideas sobresalientes que redefinen el diseño de rascacielos a través de la implementación de nuevas tecnologías, materiales, programas, la estética y las organizaciones espaciales, junto con los estudios sobre la globalización, la flexibilidad, la adaptabilidad y la revolución digital. Es un foro que examina la relación entre el rascacielos y el mundo natural, el rascacielos y la comunidad, y el rascacielos y la ciudad.

eVolo 2015 Skyscraper Competition. The participants should take into consideration the advances in technology, the exploration of sustainable systems, and the establishment of new urban and architectural methods to solve economic, social, and cultural problems of the contemporary city including the scarcity of natural resources and infrastructure and the exponential increase of inhabitants, pollution, economic division, and unplanned urban sprawl.

The competition is an investigation on the public and private space and the role of the individual and the collective in the creation of a dynamic and adaptive vertical community. It is also a response to the exploration and adaptation of new habitats and territories based on a dynamic equilibrium between man and nature – a new kind of responsive and adaptive design capable of intelligent growth through the self-regulation of its own systems.

There are no restrictions in regards to site, program or size. The objective is to provide maximum freedom to the participants to engage the project without constraints in the most creative way. What is a skyscraper in the 21st century? What are the historical, contextual, social, urban, and environmental responsibilities of these mega-structures?

eVolo Magazine is committed to continue stimulating the imagination of designers around the world – thinkers that initiate a new architectural discourse of economic, environmental, intellectual, and perceptual responsibility that could ultimately modify what we understand as a contemporary skyscraper, its impact on urban planning and on the improvement of our way of life.

The 2015 eVolo Skyscraper Competition is possible with the support of Autodesk, real5D and v2com.
