Re-Imagining Railway Stations Competition 2020 now is over!
Re-Imagining Railway Stations Competition 2020: Network Rail and RIBA Competitions have launched an international competition to shape the future of Britain’s railway stations. Entrants are encouraged to consider how future stations can be sustainable and deliver outstanding value, whilst achieving net-zero emissions.
Short description
The competition will provide architects, engineers, and designers the chance to improve the travel experience for the millions of passengers who use Britain’s railway and leave a lasting legacy on station design.
It asks designers to reimagine small to medium-sized stations – which make up 80% of all those on Britain’s railway – so they can better serve the needs of both passengers and their local communities.
The competition encourages entries that stimulate creativity and address the changing character of our society.
In developing proposals, entrants are encouraged to consider how future stations can be sustainable and deliver outstanding value, whilst considering the impact on the environment to achieve net-zero emissions to leave a positive legacy for future generations.
Across Britain, there are more than 2,000 small-to-medium stations that vary greatly in terms of design quality and amenities. By improving the overall quality of stations, they can better serve their communities, whilst accommodating potential enhancements to the existing and future passenger experience through good design.
Designs should be considered for the adaption of existing stations to better meet passenger requirements, or new-build stations to accommodate the projected increase in demand for rail travel.
On the judging panel will be:
Lucy Musgrave OBE, (founding director of Publica), Jonathan McDowell (director, Matter Architecture), Chris Wise (senior director, Expedition Engineering), Dinah Casson CBE (RDI designer), Victoria Lee (lead program manager, Design Council), Paul Beaty-Pownall (managing director, BPR Architects Ltd), Sahar Fikouhi (founder, ARki), Anthony Dewar (professional head of buildings and architecture, Network Rail), Frank Anatole (principal architect, Network Rail) and Ian Grimes (principal engineer, Network Rail).
There is no entry fee to participate!
Who may enter?
The competition is open internationally to individuals and teams from both small and large organizations from the design, built environment, and manufacturing industries.
