About Competition
ARKxSITE is pleased to announce the ‘SITE TOWER’ international architecture ideas competition for architecture students and young professionals under 40 years old.
This international one-stage architecture ideas competition invites all architecture students, young architects and young professionals with a degree in architecture studies under 40 years old to develop and submit compelling ideas for the design of a Site Tower located in the beautiful scenery of Monsaraz, Alentejo, Portugal.
The Site Tower is a secluded landmark, a place to capture the history of the site and engage with the landscape and beautiful scenery of the Alqueva lake. Mediating between exterior and interior spaces from the ground to the emptiness above, it is an embodied experience of light and air through movement and places of rest; a contemplative journey through memory, time and place.
