We hereby invite students from all around the world to join us and to contribute their work to the renewal of the hard-pressed city. Let’s make the dream of the founders of INSPIRELI AWARDS a reality. Let’s help Beirut to be reborn again!
In August 2020, a devastating explosion of about 2,750 tons of ammonium nitrate happened in the heart of Beirut, Lebanon, completely destroying the port of Beirut along with adjacent part of the city. Today, the Beirut municipality and the Inspireli Awards announce a unique architectural competition for all students of Architecture around the world who would enjoy contributing and helping with their ideas.
Vila Volcá welcomes you with a sense of discovery: you are entering an almost primitive ruin with its massive stone walls in the middle of a forest. A ruin-like house that tries to dissolve boundaries in order to develop the full potential of the void. This specific project does not respond to the classic inside-outside duality, it will try to break the boundaries between interior and exterior.
