Fill this form to have the opportunity to join the New Generations platform: submissions will be reviewed on a daily-basis, and the most innovative practices will have the chance to be part of the media's coverage and participate in our cultural agenda, including events, research projects, workshops, exhibitions and publications.
New Generations is a European platform that investigates the changes in the architectural profession ever since the economic crisis of 2008. We analyse the most innovative emerging practices at the European level, providing a new space for the exchange of knowledge and confrontation, theory, and production.
Since 2013, we have involved more than 300 practices from more than 20 European countries in our cultural agenda, such as festivals, exhibitions, open calls, video-interviews, workshops, and experimental formats. We aim to offer a unique space where emerging architects could meet, exchange ideas, get inspired, and collaborate.

Tasso consists of the creation of a building with 8 apartments in Lisbon, Portugal, conducted by NOMOS.
NOMOS is an association of architects with offices in Geneva, Lisbon, and Madrid.
Located in the center of Lisbon, this new red brick building stands across from a 12-story austere office building.
The main façade is thickened to create a threshold between the street and the eight apartments allowing a smooth transition from the domestic to the rough urban environment.
These thresholds shape the apartments’ sensory experience, graduating the intimacy of the spaces they protect from the outside in.
The folding windows are designed to offer an extra space for people and plants in the window frame.
The bathrooms and kitchens are located in the centre, creating a continuous circulation around them. With this layout, the rooms can be used and perceived from end to end.
The red bricks are placed back to front, to create a rough textured façade, which distinguishes it from the sleek adjacent buildings.
The transition between urban and the individual spaces is emphasised by the use of white enamelled bricks in the jambs and lintels of the openings.
This smooth, light-reflecting finish announces domestic life inside the dwellings.
