ARCHITECTURE COMPETITION
The CHART Architecture competition, a key element of CHART SOCIAL, is a platform for young Nordic architects to explore and challenge the crossover between art, design and architecture. Five finalists selected by this year’s judges will design pavilions to house gastronomy partners and SPACE10 in the courtyard at Kunsthal Charlottenborg during CHART.
The concept in 2018 is OPEN-SOURCE and challenges participants to unfold the potential of open-source content through modular design and cross collaborations, creating a platform for aesthetic experimentation and reusable design.
The judges for CHART Architecture 2018 are:
BJARKE INGELS, Architect & Founder of BIG Bjarke Ingels Group BEATRICE GALILEE, Curator of Architecture & Design, The Metropolitan Museum of Modern Art BENANDSEBASTIAN (Ben Clement & Sebastian De La Cour), Artist-duo SIMON FROMMENWILER, Architect and Co-Founder of HHF Architects THOMAS LOMMEÉ, Founder and Partner of OpenStructure and Infrastructure SUSANNE OTTESEN, Owner of Galleri Susanne Ottesen and Co-Founder of CHART
The winners of the CHART Architecture 2018 competition are:
FRAME
Architect students Malte Harrig and Vitus Karsten Bjerre and art-photography student Katrine Hoff has collaborated on the FRAME pavilion, which is inspired by art transport and can be packed flat.
OPEN RESOURCE
The architect students Dennis Andersson, Mikkel Møller Roesdahl and Xan Browne creates the OPEN RESOURCE pavilion with the desire to convey the aesthetic potential of recycled plastics. The Pavilion will host CHART’s primary cocktail bar in collaboration with Belvedere Vodka.
THE MANY CHAIRS PAVILLION
Art student Sofia Luna Steenholdt, architect student Joachim Makholm Michelsen and architects Emil Bruun Meyer and Casper Phillip Ebbesen are collaborating to create The Many Chairs Pavillion by using residual materials from CNC produced open source chairs: 72 chairs, one pavilion, zero-waste. La Fabrica will be in The Many Chairs Pavillion.
TIGHT KNIT
Architect student Jan Sienkiewicz and textile design student Uta Sienkiewicz makes use of traditional craftsmanship scaled to a knitted pavilion where Rouge Oysters will be found.
CLOUD 9.0
Architect Sean Lyon is behind Cloud 9.0, which is a physical manifestation of the “Open Source” concept and combines the idea of infinite knowledge in a strict physical form. The Pavilion illustrates the Internet’s infinite knowledge bank through the “cloud”. The Pavilion is further developed in collaboration with SPACE10.
The five pavilions will be shown during CHART from 31st of August to 2nd of September, and a special award for best pavilion will be awarded on September 1, 2018.
