Competitions

摘要

Brief The Architecture Foundation has launched an international contestfor a £25,000 'beacon' tower at Columbia and Brunswick Wharf in Hackney, north-east London. The anonymous competition -now in its third year-invites artists, architects, designers and makers to draw up radical visions for a prominent 'beacon' or spire to occupy the roof of the Grade Ⅱ-listed Hoxton Docks complex on Regent's Canal. The £25,000 project, backed by historic regeneration specialist Shiva, will transform the north-western roof corner into a signpost for the wharf's 'alternative educational and experimental ethos'.
