Fill this form to have the opportunity to join the New Generations platform: submissions will be reviewed on a daily-basis, and the most innovative practices will have the chance to be part of the media's coverage and participate in our cultural agenda, including events, research projects, workshops, exhibitions and publications.
New Generations is a European platform that investigates the changes in the architectural profession ever since the economic crisis of 2008. We analyse the most innovative emerging practices at the European level, providing a new space for the exchange of knowledge and confrontation, theory, and production.
Since 2013, we have involved more than 300 practices from more than 20 European countries in our cultural agenda, such as festivals, exhibitions, open calls, video-interviews, workshops, and experimental formats. We aim to offer a unique space where emerging architects could meet, exchange ideas, get inspired, and collaborate.

At a time when the discipline of city planning is increasingly beleaguered, who are the players and what are the processes that really “make a city”?
This is the question that the curators, Pietro Bonomi and Nicolò Ornaghi (NM3), addressed to the authors of the six works that constitute the exhibition Trouble making. Who Is Making the City?
The answers articulate different interpretations elaborating on six themes involving the urban dimension. They examine the consequences and impact of the huge flows of capital, data, goods and tourists on the city and people’s lives.
Apparently independent phenomena that run parallel, such as home sharing, platform capitalism, mass tourism, the internet of things, advanced logistics and gig economy, seem to converge in a cohesive economic model which in turn shapes the urban and domestic spheres.
The conflict between flows and places, between virtual and real worlds, between planning and proliferation, is redefining the cities by changing environments, power balances and the way people interact within the city itself.
ganko was asked to provide the formal infrastructure to display and experience the contents of the exhibition.
The exhibition design relies on the careful placement of few simple elements.
Their interaction defines unexpected spatial tensions within the industrial hall of the exhibition space and frames specific conditions for each contributor.
