CLUJ NAPOCA

CLUJ-NAPOCA, October 20, 2020

The Romanian Order of Architects and the City Hall of Cluj-Napoca officially announce the launch of the International Solutions Competition "The Landscaping of the East Park Cluj-Napoca".

The aim of the contest is to select the best solution for the development of the East Park in Cluj-Napoca, in order to award the design contract.

The new development will have to ensure the conservation in optimal conditions of the wetland area with specific flora and fauna, developed spontaneously and constituting a unique biotope in the urban environment of Transylvania. At the same time, the promoter wants to create a park that will fulfill the usual functions for this kind of public spaces, and that will socially and functionally reactivate the area through the landscape attractiveness of the created settings. By integrating it into the system of other urban plantations, the future East Park will become an important node in the green network of the city and the eastern area of Cluj-Napoca.

The contracting authority of the competition is the City Hall of Cluj-Napoca, which will become the beneficiary of the project contracted as a result of this competition.
