PROJECTS FEEDBACK
Any participant in the INSPIRELI AWARDS competition can ask a member of the international jury for feedback on his/her competition project. Jurors are assigned across continents at a ratio of one juror per student. The resulting gallery is a unique architecture textbook, created free of charge by those who wish to participate in our project and contribute their work to the education of the up and coming generation. We are honored that you are sharing your designs and experiences here.

Project ID 7218, titled "Rialto Center: Film School and Cinema" by Nour Atif, is a sophisticated adaptive reuse project located in Alexandria, Egypt.

Conceptual Strength: Architecture as Palimpsest Strengths: The use of "Architecture Palimpsest" is a brilliant conceptual driver. By treating the remaining Art Deco…

For Project ID 5740, titled "Hidden Villas_Miris Garden" by Romana Ručková, here is a professional evaluation and improvement suggestions based on Inspireli’s jury standards. 1. Project Evaluation A. Concept and Integration Strengths: The "Hidden Villa" concept is highly effective for the Dalmatian coast. By burying the structures into the sloping terrain, you preserve the natural horizon and minimize the visual impact on the landscape. This "invisible architecture" is a trend jurors…

A. Concept and Narrative (The "Why") Strengths: The project has a strong social driver, focusing on "learning by doing." Jurors appreciate the emphasis on the school as an incubator for local skills rather than just a passive place for lectures. Contextual Fit: The design respects the local "Insaka" (gathering place) tradition. By creating a layout that promotes informal social interaction, the project aligns with Zambian communal life. B. Technical and Environmental Execution …

Narrative and Cultural Impact: The project successfully transforms a neglected interwar monument (Heinrich Bluma’s 1932 Villa Wittal) into the ŠTETL Jewish Culture Center. The transition from a private residence to a public cultural hub (café, library, exhibition spaces) is a strong social contribution. Respect for Heritage: The strategy of "preservation-first"—respecting original paving, metalwork, and openings—is aligned with international monument care standards. Programmatic Versatility:…

Concept: Strong symbolic narrative using the "path" as a journey from the tragedy (silos) to the future. It successfully balances a working industrial port with a public memorial space. Urban Integration: The project excels in "re-stitching" the city to the sea, breaking the barrier of the highway that currently isolates the port area. Logistics: Good use of automated systems (like high-bay storage) to keep the port compact and efficient, freeing up land for public use.

A. Form and Aesthetic Narrative Strengths: The "wave" geometry is visually striking and effectively breaks the monotony of typical rectangular urban blocks. Using sandstone and glass for the exterior provides a sophisticated, "marine-inspired" texture that stands out in the Moscow skyline. The contrast between the smooth outer shell and the "hustle-and-bustle" interior (terraces and balconies) is a strong architectural concept. Critical Review: With a semi-circular form, the jury will look…

Project ID 9141, titled "INSAKA: A Kashitu Secondary School Project," is a submission for the Kashitu School competition in Zambia by a team from Universiti Teknologi Malaysia. The project is deeply rooted in the cultural concept of the "Insaka"—a traditional African circular gathering space—and seeks to modernize it for a secondary school environment using sustainable materials and off-grid solutions. 1. Project Evaluation A. Cultural Sensitivity & Narrative Strengths: The team has…

A. Conceptual Strength: "The Cedar Path" Strengths: The use of the Lebanese Cedar as a formal metaphor for the pedestrian path is emotionally powerful. By starting the "roots" in the city and ending at a "spiritual" memorial at the water’s edge, you create a clear narrative arc that guides the visitor from the material to the ethereal. Architectural Logic: The "Silver Lining" metaphor—realized as a glass gallery—is a clever way to physically insert a layer of "hope" between the tragic ruins…

Project ID 9175, titled "Nová obytná čtvrť Praha - Sedlec" (New Residential District Prague - Sedlec) by Kristýna Burešová, is an ambitious urban design project. It tackles a complex site characterized by extreme topography (rocks and terrain breaks), industrial heritage (a chimney and underground reservoir), and significant ecological value (the Vltava Canyon). The design transitions from a dense, high-rise "urban" northeast to a low-rise, fragmented "natural" southwest. Here is an evaluation…
