supernova (more)

Hello!
Since a couple of weeks I’m working for a non-profit
organization SUPERNOVa (created in 1999). It aims at
offering a platform to a not well-known group of young
Belgian architects to inform about their activities.
Supernova created a web site, where young architects
can present their work or their web site on.
In Belgium the platform works really well, so we aim
to enlarge it to an European scale with the help of
the ideas and the contacts of the Easa national
contacts.


The first years after graduating, architects are
rarely remarked by the outside world. Their work does
not get a chance in public discussions about
contemporary architecture and their projects do not
get a lot of attention from the architectural world,
the public and the media. A platform that highlights
the unknown and unlisted work or work in progress of
young architects, lacks.
We may expect, though, that this generation will
educate itself and will soon influence the
architectural landscape. Therefore it seems necessary
to accent this generation, to draw the attention of
the media and to give them a forum by which they can
promote themselves.

An overview of the work of young architects will add
other accents to and will undoubtedly enlarge the
portrayal of architecture that nowadays rules.
At the same time such an overview will stimulate a
debate about contemporary, up-to-date architecture.
To have a really fundamental debate, it is necessary
that young architects can participate in the forming
of a vision on architecture and that their work is a
subject of discussion.

And therefore we need your help!


We would like to get in touch with a lot of young
architects or architect students who have already at
their disposal a web site, and who are interested in
being part of supernova.
