Core Introduction
This challenge invites participants to reimagine the Elbphilharmonie through one powerful architectural drawing . The aim is not technical perfection or realism, but rather a bold concept, an emotional idea, or a question made visible . Participants are encouraged to consider what the iconic building might become if it responded to climate, or was built from light, earth, or memory .
