Competition Background:
Located at the mysterious North Latitude 18°, LingShui in Hainan conceals a continuous 500-year-old historical and cultural heritage. The Tanka Families living here make their livelihood from the sea, considering the sea as their home. They are often referred to as the "Gypsies of the Sea," and the Tanka fishing rows are recognized as an intangible cultural heritage conservation project in Hainan Province.
Under the theme "LingShui Sea Nomadic Imagination," we are launching an open competition for the spatial design of the sea-based fishing rows. The objective of the competition is to enhance the living standards of the sea villagers, protect the local Tanka cultural identity and create a sustainable fishing industrial operation.
Site Introduction:
Lingshui New town's Sihai Lake, where the Tanka Families' fishing rows are located, is approximately 218.6 kilometers away from Haikou City in Hainan Province and about 64.8 kilometers away from Sanya City. This location has unique Tanka Families' culture and abundant natural tourism resources. Currently, the New Town has 456 fishing row households and 1,475 ships, with over 5,000 people living and working at sea throughout the year.
There are two categories in the competition:
Track A：Upgrading and Renovation of Fishing Row Dwellings (~20㎡)
Upgrade and renovate the existing fishing rows dwelling on the water to improve the quality of life for the Tanka communities. This includes but is not limited to improvements in fishing rows farming space, the internal and external dwelling spaces of Tanka people, and any other design that participating teams believe will improve the living conditions. Design should incorporate environmental protection measures, consider rainwater and wastewater management, and prioritize eco-friendly, low-carbon, and energy-efficient solutions. Suggested renovation budget should be controlled within 30,000 RMB.
Track B: Public Space Design (>200㎡)
Design public spaces on the sea, encompassing a variety of functions such as guesthouses, restaurants, bars, cafes, libraries, small theaters, art galleries, leisure centers, flower shops, creative cultural stores, and collective spaces. The designs should focus on small-scale commercial cluster planning, architectural cluster design, and individual building designs. Participants should consider environmental protection measures, rainwater and wastewater management, and prioritize eco-friendly, low-carbon, and energy-efficient solutions during the design process.
