2020–2024 competition works in MEA collection
Estonia continues to hold many architectural competitions each year, around 30 of them public. It is a pleasure to look back and study the designs of buildings, landscapes and inventive interiors that have been recently completed or are about to be completed.
The museum’s digital collection was supplemented with works from public architectural competitions held between 2020 and 2024, which include not only the awarded works but also the commendations. The competition tasks and jury protocols are also invaluable for providing background information. Competitions have been organised all over Estonia, and among the objects there have been a relatively large number of competitions for squares, town centres and school buildings in the last five years. Beach houses and community centres also stand out. The high professional level of the competitions suggests that the most suitable solutions for their location have been found. Architects have given their competition entries very inventive keywords, but they love to give the names “Garden” and “Nest” in various forms.
In total, award-winning works from 117 architectural competitions (archive numbers DK 675 to DK 1150) were collected, recorded and supplemented with digital files. The works are visible in the Museum Information System in the digital collection of the Estonian Museum of Architecture, for example: Eesti muuseumide veebivärav – Audru keskväljaku arhitektuurivõistluse protokoll
The compilation was made possible with the help of the The Estonian Association of Architects, the Estonian Centre for Architecture, various local governments and the support of the Cultural Endowment of Estonia. Special thanks go to architect Kalle Komissarov, who did a thorough preliminary work compiling the competition information.
