Open Call: Oslo Architecture Triennale

About the Open Call
For its 8th edition, Oslo Architecture Triennale invites architects, planners, urban practitioners, academics, artists, activists and others to submit projects, practices and perspectives to contribute to the Triennale mission: creating more sustainable, diverse and thriving neighbourhoods.

Selected submissions will be exhibited in Oslo at the Oslo Architecture Triennale in the fall2022, to an international audience of professionals as well as to the broader public. Additionally, a wider selection of projects will become part of the Neighbourhood Index—an international digital index of visionary neighbourhood projects, practices and perspectives—to be displayed online in connection to the Triennale programme.

The Open Call searches for visionary ideas and examples on how to form better neighbourhoods: What are the practical, architectural, and social features of good neighbourhoods? How can we share more at a neighbourhood scale? How can new urban areas become more diverse and socially and environmentally sustainable? The Call is open to both practical and systemic reflections, small-scale interventions and master plans, as well as physical and social projects.
