Offener Ideenwettbewerb
Wettbewerbsaufgabe
Der Wettbewerb lud Architekten und Designer dazu ein, sich ein neues Leben für die Villa Meneghetti vorzustellen, einen verlassenen, aber historisch bedeutsamen Komplex in Norditalien. Einst ein Rückzugsort für venezianische Adelsfamilien, die Erholung vom intensiven Stadtleben suchten, hat die Villa das Potenzial, ihre Rolle als Ort der Ruhe und Besinnung zurückzugewinnen. Ziel des Wettbewerbs war es, den Ort als Agritourismusbetrieb neu zu interpretieren und dabei das kulturelle Erbe mit einer zeitgemäßen Nutzung zu verbinden. Die Teilnehmer wurden dazu ermutigt, die historischen Räume in ein immersives Slow-Tourism-Erlebnis zu verwandeln und dabei die Funktionalität der Villa zu verbessern, ohne ihre architektonische Identität zu beeinträchtigen. Im Mittelpunkt der Aufgabenstellung stand das Bestreben, nachhaltigen Tourismus und den Erhalt der Kultur zu fördern und dabei den Dialog zwischen Architektur, Landschaft und Tradition hervorzuheben.
Competition assignment
The competition invited architects and designers to imagine a new life for Villa Meneghetti, an abandoned yet historically significant complex in northern Italy. Once a retreat for noble Venetian families seeking respite from the intensity of urban life, the villa has the potential to reclaim its role as a place of calm and reflection. The competition’s aim was to reinterpret the site as an Agriturismo, blending heritage with contemporary use. Participants were encouraged to transform its historic spaces into an immersive slow-tourism experience, enhancing the villa’s functionality while respecting its architectural identity. At the heart of the brief was the ambition to foster sustainable tourism and cultural preservation, highlighting the dialogue between architecture, landscape and tradition.

THE VENETIAN VILLA Competition
TerraViva launches THE VENETIAN VILLA, a new architecture competition that invites the participants to rethink a unique historic Venetian Villa into an immersive slow-tourism experience in northern Italy.
Prizes up to 8.000 € will be awarded to the winners selected by an international jury panel composed, among others, by Paolo Cesaretti (pc-|<), Charles Tashima (Studio Tashima), Emma Lindblom (LIND Studio) and Ilaria Vettoretti (Agnese Design).
BRIEF
"The Venetian Villa" invites designers to breathe new life into Villa Meneghetti, an abandoned yet historically significant complex in northern Italy. The goal is to reinterpret it as an Agriturismo, a contemporary program capable of transforming spaces once dedicated to education or production, into a fully immersive slow-tourism experience.
Participants will have full creative freedom to propose interventions that respect the villa’s architectural heritage while enhancing its functionality. By re-imagining it as a rural retreat, the competition aims to promote sustainable tourism and cultural preservation, emphasising the connection between architecture, nature and local traditions.
PRIZES & MENTIONS
• 1st Prize: 4.000€
• 2nd Prize: 2.000€
• 3rd Prize: 1.000€
• 2 Golden Mentions: 500€ each
• 10 Honorable Mentions: coupon for a free competition
• 30 Finalists: published on TerraViva channels
GUIDELINES
The competition involves the complete renewal of the villa into a modern Agriturismo, ensuring all necessary functions to guarantee a comfortable and enjoyable stay for guests. Proposals may include modifications not only to the exteriors elements (façades, roofs and connecting spaces), but also to the interiors, which will play a crucial role in harmonizing the villa’s historical character with contemporary living standards.
The outdoor spaces between existing buildings should be envisioned as a blank canvas, offering opportunities to seamlessly connect architecture and nature. These in-between spaces can become vibrant settings for interaction, relaxation and contemplation, offering both functionality and inspiration
REQUESTED MATERIAL
Two A1 panels (59,4 x 84,1 cm) landscape oriented + a brief text describing the proposal (250-500 words).
