International Biennale of Architecture Krakow 2015 Competition

MBA Kraków 2015 shall be held in three disciplines whose principal idea and theme is "Human dimension of urban spaces". 

 

The MBA Kraków 2015 has been held in Kraków for the past 30 years as a regular event. Each subsequent edition offers an unique forum for exchanging ideas and individual experience among the architects from around the world. A diversity of accompanying events like thematic competitions, exhibitions, presentations and lectures makes it a totally unique event for everyone involved in any way with the domain of architecture in this part of Europe.

 

During the previous editions of MBA Kraków 2015 the accompanying competitions provided a perfect opportunity for both the beginners and the well seasoned architects from around the world to get noticed by the media. The projects were evaluated by the pre-eminent architects like Wojciech Leśnikowski, Pekka Salminen, Julia Bolles and Peter Wilson, Francesco Purini, Eckhard Feddersen, Günter Schlusche, Hildebrand Machleidt, Armando dal Fabbro and Peter Cook.

 

The exhibitions and seminars used to be graced by such eminent guests of honour as Frei Otto, architects Herzog & de Meuron, Zvi Hecker, David Mackay, Dietmar Eberle. All the award-winning works would gain international recognition and prominence, being also duly documented by the MBA Kraków 2015 in-house publishing venture.
