The Istituto Nazionale di Architettura is asking young designers (entrants must be under 40 years old at the time of submission) to share their “intelligent, ecological, and productive” ideas for parkways and railways in a design competition called Green Boulevards: Parkways for the Third Millennium. The goals for these designs are extremely ambitious: The roads should be “networks for distributed generation of green energy, providing economy and employment,” according to the competition brief. Two winners will get 5,000 euros each, and along with the first four runners-up will be invited to participate in study groups working on an interregional master plan for Italy. If you want to participate, you must register online by 10:00 a.m. November 5. Submissions will be accepted through November 15.
