Terraviva launches THE WATER TOWER, a new international competition that challenges architects and designers to envision the complete transformation of Milanino’s historic Water Tower into a vibrant cultural hub for the community!

简介 / BRIEF
坐落于米兰尼诺花园城市中心的历史悠久的水塔，是该地区最知名的地标之一：尽管历经数十年的风雨侵蚀，它依然蕴藏着丰富的建筑和文化潜力。水塔改造竞赛邀请参赛者重新构想这座建筑，将其打造成为当代文化中心，使其成为一个充满活力、方便易达且老少咸宜的日常场所。
本次竞赛要求对水塔的室内外空间进行全面改造：从灵活的文化空间、联合办公区和展览区，到露台、微型广场和户外聚会场所，所有这些都将与建筑的新功能相得益彰。
Nestled in the heart of Milanino’s Garden City, the historic Water Tower stands as one of the district’s most recognisable landmarks: currently marked by decades of decay, yet rich with architectural and cultural potential. The Water Tower competition invites participants to reimagine this structure as a contemporary cultural hub, transforming it into a place that is alive, accessible and used daily by people of all generations.
The challenge calls for a complete renovation of the tower’s interior and exterior spaces: from flexible cultural rooms, coworking areas and exhibition zones to terraces, micro-plazas and outdoor gathering spaces that complement the building’s new functions.

指南 / GUIDELINES
竞赛的目标是设想一个可以恢复“水塔”建筑在过去的中心地位的项目，寻求能够设想它再次焕发生命力、可供各年龄段的人们日常使用的建筑提案。
同时设想这种垂直结构物如何作为整个社区的参考点，适合全年举办活动、创意内容和社区项目？
竞赛目的不仅仅是修复一座废弃的建筑，而是赋予它一个新的身份——一个尊重其历史价值，同时拥抱实验、创新和当代生活的身份。竞赛邀请参与者提出原创概念，将米兰尼诺的水塔变成文化、创造力和社会联系的建筑催化剂。
The goal is to envision a project that can reclaim the centrality the building had in the past, seeking proposals that imagine it once again alive, accessible and used daily by people of all generations.
How could a vertical structure of this kind serve as a point of reference for the entire neighbourhood, hosting events, creative activities and community initiatives throughout the year?
The aim is not merely to restore an abandoned building, but to give it a new identity - one that respects its historical value while embracing experimentation, innovation and contemporary living. Participants are invited to propose original concepts capable of turning Milanino’s Water Tower into an architectural catalyst for culture, creativity and social connection.
