Short description
“Balconi per Roma” Competition, promoted by the Festival del Verde e del Paesaggio, annual event scheduled for the first weekend of April in Rome - Auditorium Ennio Morricone Music Park - Hanging park.
The competition is aimed at architects, landscape architects, agronomists, designers, artists and creatives of any kind nationality, for the conception, design and construction of a balcony.
The Festival strongly believes that the garden, regardless of shape and size, is the field of experimenting with one's own vision of the world and not a miniature universe or refuge from reality.
The 2024 edition of the competition asks partecipants to transform the balcony into a creative installation. The balcony is the symbolic threshold between inside and outside, an open border where meeting, exchange, representation and narration come together.
The balconies are real outdoor rooms, offering fragments of changing landscape with the seasons, they encourage different ways of living and cohabiting, they stimulate new habits. They are the expression and extension of ourselves and the response to fundamental emotional needs, such as
belonging, sharing, comfort, fun.
Designed by architects and landscape architects or by artists and creatives, candidates must propose the transformation of the balcony into a stage inspired by a private occasion or by adults current affairs, with historical memory or fantastic imagination, linked to travel, art, cinema, music, books or trends, which reflects the identity and values of those who live there. Microenvironments with or without vegetation, playful, ecological, colourful, capable of becoming the manifesto of a new lifestyle, sustainable and respectful, the personal contribution to the interpretation of the world.
The organization provides selected projects with 1 wooden platform 200cm x 83cm h. 70cm. There is no financial contribution for the setup.
