1st place - ID000390 - Team Martin Herzán, Anna Glajc, City: Vienna, Country: Austria

“The major success of design is to reveal at first the flexibility in design process or end-product in terms of both construction and participation.Using regional material is also another important parameter because of the referring contextualism matter to a large extent.In addition,thinking about future steps of the education in this region is not a usual thing so it proves and make it continuous or the sustainability of design in all conditons.The other important factor here is that this is not a compact design,the two terms (education and living área) are separated and defined very well and most importantly;the notion of education is made more interactive and entertaining because if children like this space,they will never leave it.The overall design is more simple,minimal but thinking about the future and also respect to the regional sources and fabric.” Berrin Chatzi Chousein

“This project is remarkable because it has a doble purpose (3 basic elements):

The living box is independant from the car but also it proposes an inflatable space to turn it into a school.” Rafael Gozalez

“The project ID000390 was not one of our options due to the difficulty of finding parts in Africa to repair certain vehicles, such as the one at hand. This type of vehicle, where damage is left in the road or in fields. In addition, many of the roads connecting the villages do not have enough width to its passage, nor can go over wooden bridges. Preferably they should be used cars or jeeps. Although the solution found to the school be interesting and useful, the means of transport is not the most appropriate.” Inês Rodrigues

“The first score table was so diverse and divergent that I also would like to explain the way I voted.

I rewarded ‘risky’ ideas (although to a minimum of ‘realism’), more than 'pragmatic' answers (and therefore more feasible ones). I thought this could be the attitude for a 24-hour contest evaluation.

Anyway, the truth is that the more compliant responses to the program (school-house trailer, 15m2 of area, etc.), found no faultless designs; for example, the ID 00020 proposal, which follows more literally the program and the will be placed 3rd, is based on a too much low roulotte for African roads. Mobility appeared to me to be the first performance to ensure in this “nomadays” competition and this roulotte would stay stranded crossing the first ditch.” Pedro Maurício Borges

“This proposal works from the concept of education as a collaboration between the actors which focus on empowering. Furthermore, the authors have chosen not to impose a vision on the given context, but instead depart from the vernacular architecture as a mean for creating the foundations of education.” Bernardo Gaeiras

2nd place - ID0001610 – Team Anni Stockeld, Jessica  Kos´, Petrus Torstenson, Mirjam Berg City: Gothenburg, Country: Sweden

“Although the design does not present a new formalistic or innovative approach, there is a hidden multi-purpose logic behind it and this closed,-introverted box unveils very usable but simple,quick and easy functions with a smart arrangement within the box.It is highly appreciated to give the same amount of usable space in both cases but the space still acts both separate and compacted at the same time.For these convertable spaces,the isolation material was very important not to interfere each other but the preferred material is also a good choice and acts like it was a part of the design.” Berrin Chatzi Chousein

“The cork is a diferent material that has a special temperature resistance for Africa.

The use of the hexagon makes a very adjustable unit.” Rafael Gozalez

“The ID0001610 project was also not one of our choices. Uses a more appropriate vehicle, jeep, but have trouble understanding how you can carry everything (material for school and private places for the teacher) in a folding system. This project, although visually interesting, is utopian.” Inês Rodrigues

“The simplicity and the choice of materials are in my opinion key to this proposal.

Education should be as easy and simple as Convertable.” Bernardo Gaeiras

3rd place - ID00020 – Team Sofia Taboada, Tadeu Alves, City: Lisbon, Country: Portugal

“The design ‘’Encircle’’ is presenting a new way of educational training platform due to technological progress and innovation.Since each separate space could turn into a different function,the design itself is very open to add other functions to the designed structure,that is, each designed space can be enlarged or the number of units of the circle can be inceased according to the other subsequent functions.Practicability of the mobility is also underlying the accessibility to everywhere so even if it seems very compact and folded structure,it serves to the área and community both aesthetically and open functionality for the future.Also,there is a conceived formalistic approach that respects to the existing environmental structures and this does not alienate the design in urban fabric.” Berrin Chatzi Chousein

“With only one move, all the space gathers in one plane. Futhermore it has different levels of opening. For that reason, this project deserves to be one of the best proposals.” Rafael Gozalez

“The project 0020 is entirely feasible, provided that the cork has successfully treated for the rainy season, presents a space for protected from the sun and rain school and an independent space for the teacher, who appears to be comfortable in this situation. Children are not sitting in the dirt, something we try to avoid when teaching hygiene rules and there is some room for school supplies. Installation is quick and easy, without any effort or loss of time and the means of transport is suitable.” Inês Rodrigues

“When we are talking about nomadism, traveling lightweight is essential. This proposal accomplishes to concentrate all the requirements of this exercise in a very wit and thoughtful manner. Moreover, it works further to use the local resources for innovative methods of sustainability without compromising the rest of the concept. ” Bernardo Gaeiras
