The competition brief is to design an innovative lightweight pavilion, of maximum external dimensions 4x4x4m. During the conference the contest jury, chaired by the president of the IASS, will award a prize to the most innovative realized structure. The pavilions will be exhibited in the summer of 2019 and during the joint IASS - Structural Membranes Form and Force 2019 symposium in Barcelona.
The exhibition aims to show new insights into structural typologies, through the design of a pavilion. The structures must display a strong vision of structural design and innovation and demonstrably be the result of structural engineering focused research projects. Internationally recognized and celebrated artists, designers, engineers, and researchers in cooperation with top universities from all over the world are invited to participate in a contest and exhibition of innovative lightweight structures.
