Urban Oasis

The primary objective of the "Urban Oasis: Designing Cooling Landscapes for Thermal Comfort" competition is to stimulate innovative design solutions that effectively mitigate urban heat. As cities grapple with rising temperatures and the impact of urban heat islands, this competition seeks to encourage architects, landscape designers, and urban planners to think critically about the integration of nature within urban environments. By exploring the synergies between architecture and landscape, participants are invited to create spaces that enhance the thermal comfort of urban residents while fostering biodiversity and ecological resilience.
