The competition is open to all students registered in a spatial design (architecture, interior, landscape, urban, and so on) and or an exhibition design programs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The challenge of TRANS PLAN 2018 is to design an immersive installation that evolves throughout the duration of the exhibition. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The winning entry, selected by the jury, will be installed at A2G for public viewing for 50+\/- days in the fall of 2018. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Design Brief<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Can space evolve through its contextual and environmental agency? Can we devise an atmospheric and\/or spatial evolution? Can we stage evolutive conditions as the main experience of a space? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In relation to a \u2018responsive\u2019 or a \u2018streaming\/feeding&#8217; conditions, an \u2018evolutive\u2019 condition may assume dimensions\/dynamics of accumulation or aggregation; together with its transmogrifying nature, it can discuss a sense of commitment and responsibility. The challenge of the competition is to [1] devise an algorithmic substructure\/system for evolutive space and experience and to [2] plan out the logistics of fabrication and installation at A2G. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The proposed set up \u00a0(installation) is expected to be immersive and evolve over the duration of the exhibition, 50+\/- days. The initial setup itself can be an immersive experience itself and or a form of discourse around the topic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The proposal must be designed with the efficient and effective use of materials and fabrication\/installation process in mind and all parts used in the proposal must be locally sourceable. A total budget of up to $1,500 CDN will be allocated as the project\u2019s material budget, and basic woodworking and digital fabrication will be accessible at the faculty\u2019s facility.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Jury 2018<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Achilleas Xydis | Gramazio Kohler Research Group, ETH | Switzerland <\/span><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clay Odom | School of Architecture Advanced Interior Design U. of Texas at Austin | USA\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Darcie Watson | <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">DFZ, Ryerson University | Canada\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Joel Letkeman | Aarhus School of Architecture | Denmark\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Johan Voordouw | Azrieli School of Architecture &amp;
