DESIGN AND SELF CONSTRUCTION OF A SHELTER
FOR A FUTURE BIODEGRADABLE AND TEMPORARY HOTEL FOR PAMP,
PADULI MULTIFUNCTIONAL AGRICULTURAL PARK
The Fondazione con il Sud , the GAP project, The Puglia Regional Government's Political Sector for the Promotion of Territory, LUA, the Living the Paduli laboratory and the Union of "Middle Earth" Municipalities are promoting an ideas competition, Nidificare I Paduli, Strategie Alternative del Vivere in Natura – III edition (lit. Nesting Paduli: Alternative Strategies for Living in Nature – 3rd Edition) for the design and self-construction of a shelter for the future Biodegradable and Temporary Paduli Hotel.

The competition will culminate in the selection of a winning project and in the realization of a temporary, low cost refuge/shelter which experiments with innovative language and concepts of essentialism within the context of the Paduli agricultural environment. This is to be achieved through the use of existing resources (straw, reeds, arundo donax, dirt, leaves, wooden by-products from the pruning of olive trees, stones, etc.) and through the reuse of traditional techniques, working in response to the morphology of the site (which features natural shelters, nests, grottoes, caves, sinkholes, natural depressions and towers).

The competition is open to Italian and foreign students, creatives, graphic artists, artists, architects, designers etc., who are organised into informal groups as laid out in the terms of the competition notice.

The jury will award a cash contribution to the tune of €7,000 (all inclusive) to the winning project, towards participation in the workshop and the realization of a prototype of the shelter/refuge.
