2019 Skyscraper Competition

Announcing eVolo Magazine’s 2019 Skyscraper Competition

Established in 2006, this annual Skyscraper Competition recognizes outstanding ideas that redefine skyscraper design through the implementation of novel technologies, materials, programs, aesthetics, and spatial organizations.

The competition encourages participants to consider technology advances and to explore sustainable systems. The eVolo Magazine 2019 Skyscraper Competition is looking for projects that solve economic, social, and cultural problems of the contemporary city, including the scarcity of natural resources and infrastructure and the exponential increase of inhabitants, pollution, and unplanned urban sprawl.

There are no restrictions on the site, program, or size, and no specific height requirement. The goal is creativity without constraints.

Both team and individual entries are accepted.

I do 100% agree. Not even slightest engineering applied. Fancy images competition with pseudo-architectural talk.
