We hope you have a wonderful summer filled with everything your heart, soul, and body yearn for.

New European Bauhaus team 

The municipality of Blanca in Murcia (Spain) is looking for architectural ideas that contribute to the renovation of its cultural and social landmark building, the Centro IDOL, to help make the building more beautiful, sustainable, and better adapt it to the needs of the community.

This competition is part of LIFEBauhausingEurope, a project aiming to transform 5 different European neighbourhoods in line with the principles of the New European Bauhaus, with funding from the LIFE Programme. 

A total prize of 5.000€ will be shared among the top three winning ideas. Deadline for applications is 2 September 2024, 23:59 (CEST).

The Collection aims to showcase integrated, systemic, and actionable research for sustainable urban transformation in line with the New European Bauhaus principles.

Organisers invite papers that:
