Participants of this competition are asked to create a design concept for repurposing a panopticon. This time we challenge all designers to imagine and design a future use for this architectural form, which has historically symbolized surveillance and societal introspection. Being the main topic about well-being, designers are free to decide if they want to focus their proposal exclusively on external design or on the internal design of the structure. Presented concepts are free to explore in a critical way the different interpretations of such topics, from practical approaches to more dystopian/utopian scenarios.
