Intro
LIVING RUINS – ARCHITECTURE COMPETITION
The competition represents a new design challenge that, from its own title, attempts to counteract the current status of “Ghost Town” attributed to the abandoned village of Kayaköy (Turkey).
Through the design of a proper open-air museum, “Living Ruins” aims to collect projects capable of guaranteeing the conservation and revalorisation of such a mystical site. The transformation of this suggestive architectural complex into a thriving exhibition immersed in the Mediterranean landscape may open a new chapter for the future of the town.
In a historic moment in which mass tourism is wreaking havoc on the most popular locations, this competition can be seen as an opportunity not only to promote a more sustainable way of visiting a site, but also to offer an innovative and completely unique museum experience.
