COMPETITIONS
EKLETTICO TABLE
Typology: Furniture, idea competition
Dimensions: 1.5x0.75 m
Feasibility: Required, no budget limit
Status: Not shortlisted
The design idea stems from the desire to celebrate the 500th anniversary of the publication of Kopernik’s “De Revolutionibus Orbium Coelestium” (On the Revolutions of the Celestial Spheres) with a multifaceted and refined furnishing object suitable for various contexts.
"The Copernican theory” is the mathematical description of the motion of celestial bodies that Mikołaj Kopernik (Nicolaus Copernicus) introduced in the first half of the 16th century. The book proposed a heliocentric system, in which “in the middle of everything is the Sun”, and the Earth, like the other planets, was subject to various movements, including the revolution around the Sun and the rotation on its own axis. The ecliptic (eclittica in italian language) is the apparent path that the Sun makes in a year against the background of the celestial sphere. Most planets travel in elliptical orbits around the Sun, and these are located in the same orbital plane as the Earth. In the proposed furniture design the circular shape of an armillary sphere has been chosen in combination with concentric elliptical geometries.
The support surface features alternating sections of Tay wood and Canaletto Walnut. There are 10 rings representing the 8 planets of the Solar System, the Sun itself, and the hypothetical Planet X. In the transverse direction, we find the last ellipse, the focal point of the surface in Sapele Mahogany, which represents the inclined orbit of Pluto. Below the wooden surface is a connecting metal ring to which the "armillary" system with welded plates is bolted. The "armillary" system is then bolted to the base.
San Domino lhs hotel
Typology: Hospitality, idea competition
Location: Tremiti Islands, Italy
Dimensions: 300 sqm
Feasibility: Required, no budget limit
Status: Not shortlisted
The concept seeks to draw inspiration from monastic life, emphasizing intentional and purpose-driven living, fostering a sense of community, and making a positive contribution to society.
San Domino Mind & Soul Retreat aims to be a contemporary lighthouse for sailors while also serving as an inner guiding light for travelers.
With its timeless, understated elegance and connection to nature, a stay is not merely about relaxation. It serves as an opportunity to unwind bodies and muscles while expanding and enriching minds and souls.
The proposal has the potential to become a landmark example of how ultra-luxury hospitality can contribute to local community development while preserving historical architecture and natural environment. The extremely limited room inventory creates an exclusivity that justifies premium pricing and attracts high-value guests who can significantly impact the local economy through their spending patterns and influence.
DUBAI 2100
Typology: Urban, idea competition
Location: Dubai, UAE
Dimensions: 25 sqkm
Feasibility: Not required
Status: Third prize winner
This future projection considers factors like economic development and opportunities through AI technology, Nanotechnology & Space Elevator (even though not placed in Dubai), and climate adaptation measures.
Dubai 370 Pilot Neighborhood.
3 is the number of dimensions, 7 is a metaphor for completion, 0 is a symbol of evolution.
Dubai 370 takes inspiration from numerology and religious heritage, carrying traditions and memories of the past not as a burden but as a tool for the city's ever-evolving existence through replicable clusters.
In 2100 the city becomes a multi-layered ecosystem combining traditional urban functions with advanced climate adaptation and food production systems. A social mix of ultrarich elites, AI-driven professionals, and UBIsupported lower-class residents.
The city would likely be unrecognizable compared to today, with climate-controlled zones, underground complexes, low rise mixeduse small dwellings gathered together, green spaces and alternative farming plot lands here and there, massive public buildings and infrastructure dominating the cityscape.
