      Candidates will be selected on the basis of their academic record. This will be evaluated by the average of the marks obtained in the subjects passed in the degree course, as well as by the average of the marks obtained in the subjects passed in Projects (for this purpose, all those that depend on the Architectural Projects Department will be considered). These average grades will be calculated by the applicant, as specified in Annex I of the Terms and Conditions.

  • 2002 Contest Topic
  • '44'

    Living spaces for families or groups of people generally follow similar rules, confining different individuals in similar spaces, and different family structures in similar groups of spaces. This exercise attempts to create new relationships while investigating possible divisions into multiple spaces.
    The object of the contest is to create a permanent living space for three inhabitants.
    The total area will be 250 m2, and the number of spaces limited by walls will be 44. The function of each space and the pieces of furniture must be included. The relations between the spaces are of utmost importance.
    The contestant may choose the location. It must be described in detail, and it is important to adapt the project to the chosen location.
