Competition Introduction
A4TC-2023 is the third edition of Archiol’s architecture thesis competition.
“As an architect, you design for the present, with an awareness of the past, for a future which is essentially unknown.”
– Norman Foster
The architecture thesis is the ultimate yet preliminary test of a student; the initial years that contribute to shaping a designer who can blend all the wisdom accumulated over the academic years to create a composition of architectural ideas known as the architectural design thesis. Archiol launched this competition aiming to acknowledge the efforts and creativity of the future of architecture.
A4TC is an international architecture thesis competition that aims to promote innovative ideas developed with extensive research and thought.
Archiol is presenting the youth of architecture with an opportunity to showcase their creativity on a global scale. A4TC is considering the architectural thesis of the past five years (2018-2023).
"Architecture is the learned game, correct and magnificent, of forms assembled in the light."
- Le Corbusier
Purpose:
This competition aims to promote innovative ideas developed by the future of architecture.
