Sensory Museum 2024 - International Design Competition

INTRODUCTION
Welcome to the third edition of the Sensory Museum Design Competition, meticulously organized by Archiol Competitions. In our ever-evolving world, the impact of architecture on our experiences and perceptions has never held such profound significance. The Sensory Museum 2024 Architecture Design Competition invites creative visionaries from across the globe to embark on a remarkable journey, exploring the profound influence of architectural design on human psychology. This competition challenges participants to envision a museum that transcends the conventional role of artefact repository, instead becoming a transformative odyssey for the soul, all achieved through the ingenious use of sensory architecture.

Amidst a world characterized by relentless technological advancements and unyielding urbanization, this competition serves as a call to action, urging participants to push the boundaries of conventional architectural design. We extend an invitation for you to craft an environment that does more than engage the senses; it awakens emotions and gracefully guides visitors towards a deeper understanding of the intricate relationship between architecture and the human psyche.

The Archiol’s Sensory Museum 2024 Architecture Design Competition is an opportunity to embark on a creative journey that defies the confines of traditional museum design. We eagerly await the submission of innovative, thought-provoking, and sensory-rich architectural concepts that redefine the very essence of the connection between architecture and the human psyche. In your creative endeavours, you possess the power to contribute to a more profound understanding of how sensory architecture influences human psychology. Join us in this exploration and celebration of architectural innovation.


OBJECTIVE
The primary objective of the Sensory Museum Design Competition is to inspire architects, designers, and creative thinkers to go beyond conventional museum design and create spaces that are, in themselves, artworks that captivate and transform the visitor. This competition challenges entrants to craft an experiential narrative that harnesses the power of sensory architecture to provoke introspection, evoke emotions, and facilitate self-discovery.

The museum should not be a passive institution but a dynamic platform that stimulates visitors’ senses, fostering a heightened awareness of their surroundings, emotions, and inner selves. It should be a place where visitors can connect with the built environment in a way that leaves a lasting impact on their lives. Our aim is for this competition to serve as a catalyst for reimagining the relationship between architecture, human perception, and personal growth.

Join us in this exciting journey to redefine the concept of a museum and to explore the uncharted territory of sensory architecture. We look forward to witnessing the innovative, boundary-pushing designs that will emerge from this competition and the potential they hold for shaping the future of architectural design and human experiences.


EIGIBILITY
The competition is open to architects, designers, artists, and creative thinkers from around the world. Participants can enter as individuals or in teams (max. 4 members in one team). Interdisciplinary teams are also encouraged, as the competition encourages a holistic approach to design that encompasses multiple aspects of sensory experiences.
