TerraViva launches Nautical Club Ohrid, a new architecture competition that invites anyone interested in the fields of architecture and urban regeneration to submit innovative Adaptive-Reuse projects focused on the rehabilitation of the “Youth Union Summer Retreat” building in Ohrid, North Macedonia.

The idea is to conceive a dynamic social space capable of attracting citizens and visitors to the western side of the lakefront, providing an engaging alternative to the fanciest Eastern Ohrid. The main challenge will be to envision how this 70+ years old structure could serve the needs of a contemporary vibrant lake-club.

Working on the recovery of this modern heritage left unused for over twenty years and taking inspiration from Boris Chipan’s original program, the competition requires the design of a Nautical & Social Club open to both the local community and the seasonal tourists.

The competition is open to architects, interior designers, students, enthusiasts, engineers, artists, makers and anyone interested in the fields of architecture and urban regeneration. Participants can join the competition either individually or with a team. Prizes up to 7.000 Euro will be awarded to the winners.
