FLAMINGO OBSERVATION TOWER

INTERNATIONAL ARCHITECTURE COMPETITION

Link to the original page of the competition

The Abu Dhabi Flamingo Observation Tower competition is looking to celebrate these magnificent creatures by tasking participants with designing a new observation tower for the reserve. As the Environment Agency – Abu Dhabi (EAD) has expressed an interest in the construction of this tower, designs will need to be both in keeping with the look and purpose of the Al Wathba Wetland Reserve, while having the potential to become an iconic landmark in its own right.

Not only is it an incredible opportunity to participate in a real project, but it also offers the opportunity to continue participating with such interesting architects as Alejandro Ortega Díaz. The most interesting thing about this project is the ability to be built, in such a distant environment of Spain as Abu Dhabi. In addition, there is a long time to complete, since a level of own documentation is required to study the viability of the project.
