Living Box

Edilportale.com S.p.A. –in collaboration with many others– organises the International design competition “LIVING BOX – Prefabricated Living Unit” for planning a prefabricated living unit that has to be transportable by road or air and has to face the challenge of complying with contemporary lifestyle both in terms of living comfort and architectural language. Fast transformations and incessant social-cultural flows of contemporary ages let, then, formulation of a new concept of “living” being necessary: a new thought on man and “spaces” he wants to live in. Concept of “House” itself is no more connectable to traditional model synonymous of permanence and stability. Contemporary house can easily result into a “temporary” home, emblem of mobility that characterise our age. Consequently the design of living spaces often turns into the design of its temporary aspect. The aim of the competition is to investigate design proposals that comply with such new needs. It is about designing a living “Box” completely equipped for a daily life. The “Living Box” shall overcome the contrast between “stable” and “temporary” that, as underlined by Le Corbusier -great master of Modern Movement - necessarily emerges from temporary living. It will, then, answer to the need for an easy and fast change, being able, at same time, to state the presence of a man in a context.
