In this historically significant competition, a playful structure consisting of hundreds of oval mirrors was proposed. The wind or the hands of the observers move the mirrors, reflecting the face of the city with its history as well as the diverse faces of all its inhabitants in a shared column. The mirrors are supported by a "tensegrity" matrix made of carbon fibers. This would make the supporting structure so thin that the mirrors would appear to almost float freely in space. The competition was done in collaboration with the artist Gordana Anđelić-Galić. Our team was invited to the final selection of 28 participants out of 386 applications through a prequalification process.
