1st Prize 2024 Edition: Urban Anchors: Activating Public Space Around Cable Car Towers in Medellin
What is Tactical Urbanism?
In order to face rapid changes and to improve the adaptability of public spaces, cities have been using Tactical Urbanism as a tool to become increasingly more dynamic and flexible. From a design point of view, architects and urban planners are experimenting with tactical techniques as short-term and low-cost actions for long-term and effective results.
This innovative approach can be adopted as an alternative and creative regeneration method that aims to improve the quality of public spaces by considering the needs of the community, adapting to site-specific conditions and strengthening cultural identity. The impact of this competition lies in its ability to spark conversations, inspire change and generate ideas that are scalable and replicable.

United Nations SDGs
Following the United Nations SDG n° 11 “Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable”, TerraViva has committed to organise its competitions in line with this goal.
Regarding the target n° 11.3, our goal is to incentivise and support designers to test innovative public-space projects within their local community though our annual competition “Tactical Urbanism NOW!”; while according to n° 11.4, one of the objectives of TerraViva is to contribute to the research on how to rehabilitate abandoned historical buildings through adaptive reuse, such as the cases of Hangar Ticinum and Silos Buenos Aires competitions.
