Nordrhein-Westfalen

The regional group of the bdla nw (federation of German landscape architects) accomplishes for years, in the meantime for the ninth time, together with the respective national horticultural show GmbH, a country wide new generation competition for landscape architects/inside.

The competition task this time is the design of a "climate garden" at the State Garden Show Kamp-Lintfort 2020 in NRW. Once again, this is an implementation competition, the results of which will be implemented together with Landesgartenschau Kamp-Lintfort 2020 GmbH once the competition has been completed. Prize money totalling 5,000 euros is also available for prizes and recognition. This year's competition is being supervised by Christian Jürgensmann, landscape architect bdla, Duisburg, 2nd chairman and specialist spokesman for competition and awarding of the regional group.

For "new generation landscape architects" there is rarely such a great opportunity to present their work to a broad public. The winning garden is to be realised in the area of the home gardens of the NRW Garden, Landscape and Sports Ground Construction Association to the north of the central neighbourhood square in the newly developing colliery park on a former mine site. This is a temporary garden which will be dismantled at the end of the State Garden Show, as residential use is planned for these areas.

The competition documents will be available for download on the bdla nw website from 31 October 2018. The closing date for entries is 22 March 2019. The planning site can be visited by appointment on 24 January 2019.

The competition is open to all landscape architects (recommended age max. 35 years) and students and graduates of landscape architecture or garden and landscape architecture/landscape planning at German universities, as well as foreign participants if they are studying in Germany on the day of publication.
