The OOIIO Arquitectura team wins the 1st Prize in the Europan 15 International Urban Planning Competition, with a project for the regeneration of the “Charca del Hambre” industrial estate located in Casar de Cáceres, Spain.
This is a very important award for the studio, as it culminates a research process on innovation in urban design that began many years ago. Even before the OOIIO studio was founded, Joaquín Millán was already exploring different solutions to complex urban problems.
The Europan International Urban Planning Competition is one of the most important prizes that a young architect can win in Europe, it has been held every 2 years for 15 editions, and enjoys prestige and tradition. Without a doubt, an unmissable event for any young architect with concerns about new forms of urban design.
Joaquín Millán, at the head of different teams of collaborators within OOIIO Arquitectura, has already won a Second Prize in Kuopio, Finland, in the Europan 12 edition and an Honorable Mention in the Europan 14 for an urban proposal for the beach of Palma de Mallorca.
The First Prize, now in Casar de Cáceres, closes a very fruitful stage that has made the OOIIO Arquitectura studio make a lot of progress, both at the level of knowledge in Urban research, and from the point of view of experimentation in new techniques of architectural graphic expression.
