Transportation infrastructure like flyovers, elevated expressways, bridges, highways are built to perform a certain role in a city. But in the post construction phase, as they are put into an already existing system of urban networks, the under-infrastructure space and infra elements continue to evolve into interesting usages by common people. These public spaces beneath active elevated road and rail beds remain at best largely underused, and at worst dark and dusty corridors of neglect. The reality of the modern infrastructural landscape is as much geopolitical as it is technical. Transportation infrastructure continues being utilized as an urban element, beyond their intended function in many cases.
The mission of the AIA Japan Design Awards Program is to encourage excellence in architectural design and planning, and to provide an avenue through which architects may gain recognition by their peers and the public. The ultimate goal is to raise the standards of architectural design excellence for both the architectural community and the public.

ACA's 9th International Design Competition 2022 with the theme, “Building Envelope”. The building facade has acted as a major factor in manifesting environmentally conducive spaces and improving overall performance of the built form. While conventional architecture is known to have employed passive control techniques; contemporary buildings have used active or semi active controlling methods. The competition calls for entries that have a strong focus on creating sustainable and environmentally viable prototype that is sensitive to the candidate’s own heritage & culture and geography. Entries will be judged based on the solution proposed and how sensitively the issue has been addressed.
Beyond the rhetoric of the green and contemporary exploitation, the landscape is - in itself - an element of conflict. It is an alterity both considering the inhabited world and to the world of design. It questions new codes, aesthetics, tools, and vocabularies. It is therefore a probability. But the landscape is also otherness with respect to the inhabited world, it is a project that clarifies, reveals everything that instead the design world wants to mask, conceal, embellish, pacify. With this in mind, Seeds questions the original and primary meanings of the landscape and of our way of inhabiting the Earth: it investigates the landscape as a detector of the world’s asymmetries and, at the same time, as design alterity.
DEX (Design EXperimentation) is a yearly event hosted by INDA as a platform for experimentation unbounded by the reality or feasibility of design but grounded on research to challenge, explore and innovate through tangible ideas and concepts.
