Calzavara Multifunctional Urban Structure: Calzavara and Desall invite you to participate in a new contest dedicated to the design of a telecommunications structure, which combines its primary function with elements of urban furniture and ambient intelligence services.
Short description
Calzavara , an Italian company, invites you to participate in a new contest dedicated to the design of a telecommunications structure, which combines its primary function with elements of urban furniture and ambient intelligence services.
Calzavara is looking for fresh concepts and designs for multifunctional urban furniture structures. These structures will house mobile phone antennas and other radio devices while also functioning as attractive and/or functional aspects.
The “macro” mobile cell phone antennas will always be at the top, while the radio devices will typically be put in an accessible area near the base (lower section).
Given the structure’s urban destination, the remaining parts can be designed to host ambient intelligence services such as cameras, advertising or informational LED screens, advertising decorative elements (e.g., banners), lighting, electric charging for cars or scooters, and urban furniture elements such as benches, bicycle racks, and so on.
The new structure must be innovatively designed, with a modern aesthetic fit for urban installation and global dissemination. The construction must be
The structure may incorporate the aesthetics of urban furniture (such as a streetlight pole) or a single ornamental piece (such as an “urban sculpture” placed along an avenue, in a garden, or in the centre of a roundabout).
When selecting functionalities, evaluate the rising needs of the urban population and what unique services and functions these buildings could supply. When selecting functional pieces or devices to use, make sure that they are all readily available on the market.
Entries will be judged based on the following criteria:
➜ Degree of innovation
➜ Functionality
➜ Aesthetic quality
➜ Technical feasibility
