Contest description: The International Association VATIKAM is inviting everyone to take part in a contest devoted to the birth date of the engineering genius Alexandre Gustave Eiffel.
The French construction engineer who always strived to make his works not only sturdy but also beautiful had left an indelible mark on development of architecture. He created over two hundred structures, including the Parisean Le Bon Marché emporium (together with the architect Louis-Charles Boileau) and a two-story iron house for an extravagant Peruvian millionaire. Bold ideas of Alexandre Gustave Eiffel resulted in construction of thirty-six light and strong bridges, unparalleled throughout the world.
Of course, Alexandre Gustave Eiffel also created world’s most famous steel tower that bears his name. The project initially met a negative public reaction, yet now the openwork silhouette of the Eiffel tower is an instantly recognized symbol of Paris.
Dear project participants, we are awaiting works from you for the following themes: “Tower as a symbol of my city” and “Bridges made of steel and air”.
The contest includes the following nominations:
- 3D modelling;
- Architecture;
