WHAT BIG EARS,
better to eat you with

Eating is a sensual experience–and not just taste.  To truly enjoy food, one must employ all the senses.  We all know that how a morsel LOOKS makes a difference, but is sound any less important?  I don’t want non-sizzling fajitas; how about you?  This next Call envelops ALL of the senses.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Abstracts from Luca Curci Architects for the Five Senses hotel design competition.  There is no entry fee, and you only have to send an abstract…not the actual designs.  It is worth investigating, don’t you think?

CALL for ABSTRACTS:
5 Senses

Luca Curci Architects asks artists, architects and designers from all over the world, to join a new project: styling the interior design of an exclusive five-room hotel, based on the five senses’ theme.

The Design Hotel stands at the first floor of a high-class building of the end of the 19th century, in the center of Bari, nearby the historical Petruzzelli Theatre. It consists of five rooms (each room will be dedicated to one sense) plus the hall and breakfast room.

The interior of this new Design Hotel, projected by Luca Curci Architects, will be based on the main concept of the 5 senses: each room will be dedicated to only one of the five senses and its style will reflect them through the use of different furniture, materials, shapes and colours. The Hotel’s guests will live a different and total experience and their senses will be stimulated and delighted in every room.

ELIGIBILITY:  Open to all artists, architects and designers, associate groups and studios.  No age limit.

MEDIA:  You will only be sending an abstract at this time.

DEADLINE:  October 10, 2012

ENTRY FEE:  None
