The overture to the biennial architecture competition Superscape 2016 was struck up by a big-name discussion panel and the keynote delivered by the trend researcher Oona Horx-Strathern. The well-attended and multifaceted discourse event simultaneously marked the start of the submission phase. In a decidedly controversial discussion, Christoph Thun-Hohenstein, Daniel Jelitzka and architect Klaus Kada addressed potentially beneficial issues, supplied impetus for ideas, and outlined how the second edition of the competition can put homeliving conventions to question, how it can implement daring design experiments and motivate developments towards innovative solutions for home living.
