Description
The American Institute of Architects Cincinnati in partnership with the Over-the-Rhine Brewery District Community Urban Redevelopment Corporation presents an architectural design competition open to professionals and students. LIVE·MAKE Industrial Arts Center Cincinnati calls for architectural proposals for a membership based facility that will feature private residences, maker-in-residence studios, light industrial studios and an open workshop that will help shape a new economic opportunity for the city of Cincinnati. The proposed facility will offer access to a variety of industrial machines and tools for use by artists, designers, engineers or any other constituent to aid in the production of goods and crafts. Design ideas should embrace the neighborhood’s history of innovation and civic engagement in order to inspire the next generation to develop innovative ways of making that will impact the city’s future. This competition will provide an opportunity to showcase contemporary architectural solutions that embodies a modern means of living and making while existing within a dense 19th century fabric.
