Decoupling Design from Presentation: A Concept for Cloud-based Competition Submission and Judgement

In our paper, we present a concept for a cloud-based landscape design submission and judgement system. We are asking ourselves what would happen if all teams in a competition would do away with their two-dimensional individual plan graphics and artwork, and concentrate on the intrinsic spatial design act itself. Our concept can be understood as a competition-related interpretation of Michael Flaxman’s definition of Geodesign (2010) – a design and planning method which tightly couples the creation of design proposals with impact simulations informed by geographic contexts. Aim of the concept is to achieve authoritative comparability of the qualities and performance of different design proposals. It is about the neutralization of dispensable graphical effects for the sake of undraped design quality and equitable comparability of design competition submissions. The proposed standardized cor-set separates the design proposal from personal diction, but it still allows the presentation of different designs in an attractive and beautiful way
