Powerhouse Precinct at Parramatta International Design Competition

シドニー西部郊外のパラマタに新しいミュージアムを建設する実施コンペ。事前審査で選ばれたチームがコンペティションステージに進む。

Description
The Powerhouse Precinct at Parramatta International Design Competition is an open, global, two-stage search for an outstanding, world-class team ? with exceptional skills in design and placemaking ? for the landmark new Powerhouse Precinct at Parramatta, Sydney.
The centrepiece of the precinct is a 24-hour museum, a new global cultural icon, that will be built on the banks of the Parramatta River in Sydney’s newly-designated Central River City, one of the fastest-growing parts of the region.
The new museum will house Australia’s largest and most advanced planetarium with ultra-high-resolution 3D video and multi-channel immersive audio, and deliver Australia’s first dedicated learning space devoted to STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics). A total of 18,000 sqm of purpose-built exhibition and public spaces will enable the museum to embrace a new curatorial strategy of integrated and immersive programs.
The project client, Create Infrastructure, is seeking creative multidisciplinary teams led by an architect. The competition welcomes both Australian and international design teams and actively encourages creative and intellectual collaborations between established and emerging talent.
