Reaction to the projects being implemented in Vilnius and Kaunas (Missionary gardens\, development of St. Jacob’s hospital\, Reconstruction of Vienybės Square\, renovation of Ąžuolynas park\, etc.) shows that the public is increasingly interested and willing to participate in urban development processes\, therefore public events\, that analyse architectural issues\, are very much needed and receive a lot of attention. \nKAFe festivals\, which took place in 2013 and 2016\, have received a lot of attention and appreciation not only from professionals\, but also from the public\, they had over 50 different events related to architecture and more than 10 publications published. \n  \nPhoto: KAFe 2016 \nTOPIC 2019\nThe topic of this Kaunas Architecture Festival is Landmark Architecture – creating or destroying city’s identity? \nMany cities around the world are competing to have landmark buildings\, created by world-renowned architects\, despite the fact that such objects are often built without taking into account the existing urban structure or by strongly altering the historical environment. Doubts are often expressed in public debates whether such buildings truly create the identity and uniqueness of the city\, or perhaps the opposite – it is destroyed. Are buildings of impressive shapes and structure\, which are large\, but dissonant with the environment\, what today’s society awaits and expects from architects and their clients? Can landmark architecture be something other than glass towers\, oriented only to international names\, tourists and business interests? Perhaps exclusive architecture should emphasize the uniqueness of the location and serve as the true city sign\, at the same time harmoniously complementing the existing urban structures. The focus of KAFe 2019 will particularly be on search and development of objects of different landmark architecture and urban expression. \n  \nPhoto: KAFe 2016 \nFurther Information:\nSee the official website here http://kafe.lt/2019/en/\nGet in contact via email – info@kafe.lt \nOpen Call: Landmark architecture – creating or destroying city’s identity? International exhibition-competition of final projects of architecture students. \nKaunas architecture festival KAFe2019 invites to participate in the international exhibition-competition of final projects of university architecture students – of both bachelor and master studies – on the topics of the central part of Kaunas town. The topic of this year’s KAFe2019 – Landmark architecture – creating or destroying a city’s identity? – therefore the development of the central part of town and the role of “landmark” buildings in this process is at the focus of the competition topics suggested for consideration of Lithuanian and foreign architecture universities. \nFor more Information go the website http://kafe.lt/2019/en/projektai/study-kafe/ \nHere are some impressions about KAFe 2016!\n\n\nYou are currently viewing a placeholder content from Default.
