Description
The competition jury will be interested in ideas that explore the nature of a memorial in contemporary society and how current concerns such as environmental, social and economic sustainability, might be accommodated in its design.
Design Brief
Competitors are free to develop their own briefs to suit local circumstances and the event being remembered, but the jury will want to see proposals that accommodate visitors in such a way as to add to the experience of visiting the memorial. Visitors should be inspired and informed in ways that somehow express the spirit of the event being commemorated. The size of the memorial is not important in itself, but the design should be distinctive and compelling, with cultural value, designed to last for the benefit of future generations.
Accommodation is left to competitors but might include, for instance, display space, a small archive and study area, a bookshop and sales area, somewhere to eat/drink, toilets and storage.
