First Prize in OUTSIDE THE BOX Design Competition awarded to OPENSYSTEMS Architecture, founded by Marco Vanucci (AA Dip)

The competition was organised by AIAC e PressTFactory and sponsored by the software company AnalystGroup. The project was selected among other 80 entries by two international juries. Members of the jury: P. Schumacher, M. Cuccinella, H. Ibeling, L. Bullivant, N. Goldring, N. Leach, W. Menking, Luis Moya González, L. Prestinenza Puglisi, M. Russo.

The sponsor will also fund the production of a full-scale prototype.  This will involve a second design stage where OPENSYSTEMS will have the logistic and technical support of AKTII as structural consultants. The project explores the study of a deployable unit for emergency situations to be used as a temporary dwelling during natural calamity. The project brief invited the participants to elaborate the design proposals with a particular attention to technology, whether low- or high-tech.
