Seoul | Human City Design Award 2020

Call for entries for the 2nd Human City Design Award 2020, launched by Seoul Metropolitan Government and the Seoul Design Foundation. The theme is Design for Sustainable City towards a harmonious relationship between human and the environment.

Proposals are invited: Projects that contribute to a more harmonious and sustainable relationship between people and people, people and society, people and the environment and people and nature

In 2018, Seoul City declared itself the "Human City Design Seoul". The ‘Human City Design Seoul’ Declaration is a response to what the world needs now, with our society convinced that we must overcome the harmful effects of human alienation or materialism or environmental problems, and design a sustainable urban environment in which human can enjoy creative lives.

It is the wish of the Seoul Metropolitan Government and of the Seoul Design Foundation that Seoul can serve as a window for communication in building an urban ecosystem where human and nature coexist and as a platform for joint prosperity where the sustainability and well-being of the cultural community is sought after.

With this hope, the "2nd Human City Design Award in 2020" is presented to designers or groups that have contributed to building a more harmonious and sustainable relationship between human and human, between human and society, between human and the environment, and between human and nature by tackling urban environmental issues and by presenting a new vision through creative design, following the successful start of the 1st Human City Design Award in 2019.
