Syracuse School of Architecture students win grand prize at the 2022 Busan International Architecture Design Workshop

A team of fifth-year students out of Syracuse University’s School of Architecture has been unveiled as the recipients of the grand prize at the 2022 Busan International Architecture Design Workshop (BIADW). They were recognized for their project "Connective Corridor," which lays out a waterfront revitalization and ferry system for Busan’s Busanwondong railway station on the city’s Donghae Line.  Since its inception in 2003, the BIADW has been held annually to highlight the research and ideas of architecture students across the world. It is hosted by the Busan Architecture Festival (BAF), which since 2001 has organized international design competitions, academic conferences and lectures, workshops, exhibitions, events, and research service projects in order to discover ways to develop the architecture and environment of Busan. Participants in this year’s BIADW were tasked with responding to the theme, "Megacity: Gate Networking." Teams consisting of one guiding professor and three students were challenged to create a development plan for Busan’s railway network and its stations near the East Sea, which is seen as one of the most important factors in determining the success of the "Busan Ulsan Gyeongnam (Buul-gyeong) mega-city."Read the full post on Bustler
