「LA+ INTERRUPTION Design Idea Competition」簡介
1979 年，意大利 Incontri Internazionale d’arte 舉辦了一場名為 Roma Interrota 的活動。它召集了 12 位著名建築師，每個人都從 Giambattista Nolli 的 1736 年羅馬計劃中分配了一個小組，並邀請他們用自己的建築干預來“打斷”該計劃。
… 適應和鞏固現狀對於當今世界來說不僅無聊，而且可能非常錯誤。為什麼我們要適應一個急速陷入氣候危機、假訊息、社會不平等的世界？也許我們現在真正需要的是不適合的東西，那些打斷和破壞的東西，以便更大膽地改變人們的思想和思想，重新引導生態和社會經濟流動。
In 1979 in Rome an event titled Roma Interrota was held by the Italian Incontri Internazionale d’arte. It assembled 12 renowned architects, with each assigned a panel from Giambattista Nolli’s 1736 plan of Rome and invited to “interrupt” the plan with their own architectural intervention …
fitting in and consolidating the status quo can not only be boring but profoundly wrong for today’s world. Why should we fit in with a world speeding headlong into a climate emergency, one that is increasingly shaped by false information and one increasing characterized by social inequity? Perhaps what we really need now are things that don’t fit, things that interrupt and disrupt so as to more boldly change hearts and minds, and redirect ecological and socio-economic flows.
投稿主題：
LA+ 正在為任何人創建一個平台，讓他們可以在一個成熟的城市或地方設計自己的「中斷」。
您可以將您的中斷放在任何地方，如有必要，您可以刪除任何內容為其讓路。 它可以是藝術品、花園、建築、空間、事物、障礙、氛圍、開放、催化劑、表演、程序、機構、干預、鬧劇……它可以是任何規模，它可以在任何地方。
不管它在哪裡，它必須有效地打斷它的文化和空間背景。 這是什麼意思？ 這意味著在給定的上下文中註入不同的東西以產生新的含義和新的功能。 這意味著質疑設計是做什麼的，它是為誰設計的，它看起來像什麼，以及它意味著什麼。
LA+ is creating a platform for anyone to take an established city or place and design their own INTERRUPTION within it.
You can site your interruption anywhere and, if necessary, remove anything to make way for it. It can be an artwork, a garden, a building, a space, a thing, a barrier, an ambience, an opening, a catalyst, a performance, a program, an institution, an intervention, a folly... It can be any scale and it can be anywhere.
Whatever and wherever it is, it must productively interrupt both its cultural and spatial context. What does this mean? It means injecting something different into a given context to effect new meanings and new functions. It means questioning what design does, who it’s designed for, what it looks like, and what it means.
