The skills in representing the ideas are commendable and illustrate a potential that the proposal does not reach by being too expected.
Very strong proposal that tackles all the brief requirements. Very controlled and well implemented. The only down point that would have upgraded the proposal would have been a more aggresive implementation of the concept and its biophilic expression and perception to users
Good concept that lacks bioclimatic design
LINK
To help linking the elderly to the rest of the society, this senior activity center adapts an unique form that contains multiple gentle slopes that meandering through the woods and allows elderly to easily walk on. These slopes also create edges that is suitable for dynamic activities and attracts younger generation to interact with seniors on site.

Green Village
The project concept is to create a self-sufficient urban area dedicated to growing food and educating city dwellers about sustainable agriculture. Area structure and organisation will resemble a village made up of public spaces and individual zones.
NINE ELMS FOOD PARK
The Nine Elms Food Park showcases a variety of food production strategies, giving visitors and residents the opportunity to learn how food from all over world is grown. The food produced and processed on-site offers a new urban lifestyle that revitalizes essential food production knowledge and skills while also connecting urban populations with nature.
GREEN ALLEY "
Responding to Spain’s extreme climate, this design integrates subterranean thermal mass with sustainable technology. The strategy employs limestone, oak, and photovoltaic skins to ensure thermal equilibrium. Through rainwater harvesting and Poniente breeze channeling, the central Oasis facilitates evaporative cooling, offering a resilient, ecological model.
The simplicity of the buildings highlights the landscape and looks wonderful.
Wow, It is wonderful. I loved the details!
It’s a very strong project both in terms of concept and presentation. Congratulations!
The Vertical Park
The idea was to redefine the city life by taking advantage of the function, number and location of VERTICAL PARKINGS and turn them into VERTICAL PARKS . Redefine people's life from being imprisoned by crowded and bulky towers that affect their mental health daily to a more comfortable and environmentally friendly life by light weight VERTICAL PARKS .
PEEL BACK MARKET
Peel Back Market is inspired by the transition of Thu Thiem from a vegetated and undeveloped area to a thriving, urban city. This narrative is conveyed through a large swath of Earth, abruptly pulled from the city below, as a vegetated space and calming atmosphere changes to one of excitement and vivacity.
Very wonderful!
The Green Connector
To design a respite center with rooftop and courtyard public space growing local crops, which serve as a connector between nearby communities and asylum seekers group, and between the refugee and their future life.
General Comments The competition poses a highly complex and difficult question. The restriction to use the bridge as project site narrows down the solutions to - in the best case- intelligent and technical design solutions. Because of that, many of the projects don’t reflect on the question of migration politics, social challenges, and the real problems beyond the architectural solution. To evaluate the projects, my priority was to look for a basic reflection on the migration situation and the related design challenge and a basic idea of the project related to this reflection. The further development of the project has to be coherent to this idea and the design outcome has to reflect somehow the values of the idea. The criteria of proper representation helps to understand the idea and the development. Not the best looking image is the winner, but the most coherent graphic language and argumentation line. The compliance of the room program, I don’t consider relevant in this stage of design, so all the projects have the same evaluation.
The project does not enhance the characteristic temporality that would be expected from the design. The participant overstates the approach to green, which leads them to neglect essential elements of the contest that are not resolved through gardens.
The proposal insists on its sustainable qualities, but in my opinion, the solutions offered don't respond to the context. The fact that it's a temporary place to live interferes with the idea of assigning jobs to migrants that know that there could leave literally at any moment. Even though its an interesting idea, offering temporary occupations and training requires a logistics network which would be difficult to implement.

This project focuses on environmental protection, cultural inclusiveness, and an overall picturesque scenery
As I was unable to find the FAQ tabs I will answer the Q&A here: 1. How do you foresee faith in the context of future? Certain aspects of different faith would eventually merge, but their uniqueness is to be kept for the civilization. 2. What are the concepts behind your design ideology? First I want significant use of water to replace fire -- Chinese tradition but not green. The design also induces a new way of paying tribute, which greatly include any faith under a non-aggresive ritual. Then, my design provides a particular niche--very green and seperated from outside. The design also prompts people to visit the place more often -- based on its late-night lighting, its personal ritual, and its overall nice environment. 3. How does your design incorporate a sustainable method of burying/cremating the deceased? Wooden planks will substitute tombstones and will decompose in a 60 year cycle for "new entry". This ideologically works as the dead would want to rest uninterrupted after so many years and the close relatives would likely be gone by then. A water treatment system is also set up to sustain the environment. 4. How is your design scalable for growth and cater to the growing population? The "cycling" of new spots upon the old ones is one part. The entrance tunnel merging at the center of the design and then let out people is another measure to ensure the order of the site and create more well-aligned spots. 5. What are the strategies adapted in your design for making it inclusive? I completely created a new way of prayer. By planting flowers with water and seeds. According to my research, this practice is not in conflict to any faith. 6. How does your design balance the density and quality of space for the visitors? I have a huge space across the middle section of the site designed for resting areas and scenery. The used space for the dead are only to the sides. 7. What about the catering of funeral? You may go to the port and choose spray some ashes to the sea.
Educational complex: Secondary and High school
The schools have a similar structure: the core/middle part - meeting room; warm streets/ recreation adjacent to the school units, from one side end of the library, on the other a dining space. The roof serves as a Playground under the open sky, is a tool of agricultural education. Nature is the master teacher and best benefit for the students.
GREEN HAVEN
The purpose is to create a mixed housing unit in Semarang, that provides innovative housing solutions to prevent flooding while also providing a welcoming environment for the residence and the visitors.
FAITH
Faith Competition - Architecture for a New Belief System.By Noshin Alam and Tatiana Currie
There are no elements to understand clearly the concept. The object itself is interesting and the articulation between the different spaces is well designed. I understand the project only in abstract. There is no explanation of the idea and the purposes. So in some points the proposal doesn't fit the competition requirements.
eco chapel
The idea behind the project was to create a piece of architecture that is in symbiosis with its surroundings. The building was meant to be a indistinguishable part of the forest, to underline the extent of the deforestation problem
An addition of great ideas that would benefit from becoming one whole. A more synthetic approach would make the project to more than the sum of its parts, especially given the presentation skills.
Exccelent proposal. Strong and Unique concept. Very well researched and proposed solutions. Totally solved project. A real biophilic design integrated into the vertical realm
Great concept and presentation that is flexible and dynamic.
