LABEL : PUBLICATION OF EUROPEAN AND NATIONAL CATALOGUES AND CRITICS OF RESULTS + INTERMEDIARY PHASE BETWEEN COMPETITION AND PROCESSES OF IMPLEMENTATION CITIES CAN CHOOSE BETWEEN THE WINNING TEAMS THAT OR THOSE WITH WHO THEY WANT TO CONTINUE QUESTION OF PASSAGE FROM THE COMPETITION TO PROFESSIONAL CONTRACT DIFFERENT SOLUTIONS WITH PUBLIC MARKETS : DIRECT ORDER, WORKSHOP, SECOND PHASE BETWEEN SEVERAL WINNING TEAMS PER SITE… PRE OPERATIONAL PHASE : THE NEGOTIATED DPROJECT THE WINNING PROJECT-PROCESS IS DISCUSSED WITH THE LOCAL ACTORS : CITY – OWNERS – CLIENTS – USERS… LONG PHASE WHERE THE WINNING IDEAS SERVE TO ELABORATE THE ORDER INNOVATION IN PROCEDURE TO AVOID THE MASTERPLAN URBAN STUDIES – RESEARCH – PRE PERATIONAL CONTRACT THE PROJECT EVOLVE INTEGRATING LOCAL PARAMETERS BUT KEEPING THE IDEA OF THE COMPETITION BUT SOMETIMES THE PROCESSES CAN STOP AT THIS STEP …

OPERATIONAL PHASE : URBAN AND/OR ARCHITECTURAL? VERY OFTEN THE OPERATIONAL PHASE IS ONLY URBAN. THE CITY ASK TO THE TEAM(S) TO ELABORATE A GUIDE PLAN, A SPATIAL AND PROGRAM- MATIC FRAME GENERALY AT LARGE SCALE IF THE CITY DIDN’T INVOLVE EARLIER THE POTENTIAL CLIENTS TO BUILD IT COULD BE A DELICATE PHASE FOR THE TEAM TO STAY IN THE GAME. THE ROLE OF THE CITY HAS TO BE STRONG ENOUGH TO KEEP THE QUALITY OF THE PROJECT PROCESS AT THIS STEP OF PASSAGE FROM RULES AND GUIDES TO BUILDINGS, PUBLIC SPACES AND LANDSCAPE

Europan is an experimental procedure to promote Young Urban / Architectural Designers and to help European Cities to adapt the shape of territories to new Metabolic, Inclusive, and Productive Vitalities

. the project process is already in the winning project . the city is strong and manages all the operational process

HOW TO PROMOTE PROJECTS/PROCESSES

IN EUROPEAN CITIES?

.

1-Europan as an European professional network promotes a debate on strategic themes through the competitions’ ideas, the experts proposals and the cities reflections around the adaptation of the European urban territories to big climatic, environmental and societal changes but also around values as urbanity, quality of public spaces, mixity of programs, intensity of living, through interconnections. It can be seen as recurrent themes in European cities’ history but they have to be re-developed in a contemporary sustainable approach. 2- Europan tries to initiate also concrete experimentations starting from the energy and the ideas of the young generation of professional in urban project (landscapers, urbanists, architects..) by putting them in connection with a lot of partners or public or private : municipalities, metropoles, regions, states and even sometimes European bodies, but also clients, developers, makers, users… 3- The role of Europan is not to develop an official policy on what could be the “European City of the Future”… but to initiate - at multi scales and with multi actors - in existing architectural or urban policies on the move, a set of experimental proposals of transformations of very diverse urban situations in European cities. The role of Europan is more transgressive than normative by creating inter-connections - in a trans-local approach

• between people, spaces, programs, processes, procedures in Europe associated to a

philosophy (not a doctrine!) about the new ways to inhabit the city.
