STUDIOIOIO is a collaborative platform for Architects and Designers. In order to start your own architecture practice, you need a first project, to get your first project, you need an established practice. So, how do we solve this chicken-and-egg problem? Design Competitions have, historically, been the way to break this cycle. With pressing issues in the built environment, it is essential that Architects be empowered to bring innovative solutions to realization. By lowering the barrier to entry into practice, we seek to support scalable positive change in our industry.

Description:
The Vilnius Congress Center competition invites proposals for a world-class cultural and conference venue in the heart of Lithuania’s capital. Located near the Neris River and adjacent to major civic institutions, the project calls for a highly functional, architecturally distinguished building and public space. Designs must balance flexibility, security, and sustainability while honoring the site's layered history—including its role in Lithuania’s independence movement—and creating a new open civic waterfront for Vilnius.
