Short description
TerraViva launches Eliava Bazaar, a new architecture competition that invites architects, interior designers, students, enthusiasts, engineers, artists, makers and anyone interested in the fields of architecture and urban regeneration to participate.
The challenge at hand necessitates a comprehensive approach, weaving together architectural innovation, environmental stewardship and community involvement. To address the multifaceted nature of renovating Eliava Market, participants are tasked with integrating traditional architectural elements and envisioning new spaces that facilitate cultural activities and social interaction.
Nestled within the streets of Tbilisi, Eliava Market stands as a bustling haven, intertwining commerce and culture. Its maze-like paths weave stories of livelihoods, resilience and community bonds. However, recent talks about relocating this iconic market have stirred concerns among its long-time vendors and patrons.
As discussions pivot between different options – from redevelopment to the possibility of moving to a different site – the essence of Eliava transcends mere economic metrics. It represents a cultural legacy deeply ingrained in Tbilisi’s history, fostering a sense of community and tradition.
The heart of the matter rests in preserving Eliava’s existing location, a place steeped in the city’s narrative and cherished by generations. Conserving its essence isn’t just about finding a solution to immediate concerns but safeguarding a cornerstone of Tbilisi’s cultural identity.
Who may enter?
The competition is open to architects, interior designers, students, enthusiasts, engineers, artists, makers and anyone interested in the fields of architecture and urban regeneration. Participants can join the competition either individually or with a team and there is no restriction or limit in the number of members that can compose a team. Teams can be composed by members of different nationalities and there are no restrictions about country of residence.
