Plovdivi keskväljaku ideevõistlus
The competition is to outline the future of the Central Square in Plovdiv—an emblematic location where you can find archaeology, a socialist mastodont Post Office Building and overlapping traces of most of the significant historical periods of the city. A solution for their untroubled co-existence is yet to be found.
We’ve just launched an open architectural competition for concept design of the Central Square of Plovdiv (Bulgaria’s second biggest city). The Municipality of Plovdiv and One Architecture Week Bulgaria would like to invite worldwide architects to participate.
