What if
Unbuilt Architecture in Switzerland
Very few countries give their population such a far-reaching democratic right of co-determination in the realisation of architecture and urbanism as does Switzerland. While this has produced a democratically approved architecture that is unique in the world, it has also prevented numerous projects from becoming part of the country’s built history.
Whether lost, rejected, stalled or changed … there is a multitude of architectural designs that continue to be talked about to this day in Switzerland, even though they have never been executed.11/3/–2/4/2024

Third LINA Open Call invites emerging creatives to apply with ideas, texts and practices addressing the environmental crisis.
The Open Call seeks emerging spatial practitioners, thinkers, and creatives to become LINA fellows. Individuals and teams are invited to apply with radical ideas, practical solutions, theoretical insights or thought-provoking practices addressing the environmental crisis.
25 selected authors will be invited to the 2024 LINA Conference in Sarajevo (3–4 October), while any one of the eligible applicants can be invited to co-create the LINA Architecture Programme, a series of events organised by members of the platform across Europe.Who we are looking for
We are looking for innovative individuals and collectives who apply their theoretical and practical knowledge to better our common future. We’re searching for innovators who develop spatial practices that question the status quo. We want to welcome new and emerging voices to make their mark and help amplify their radical ideas.
We are looking to give a platform to those who have not yet broken through to the international audience, and are not yet established in their respective fields. Age is not a limit, however only Creative Europe country residents are eligible to participate.
We are looking for those wanting to participate in mentoring, teaching, residencies, research, writing, who want to present their work and develop meaningful programmes. Though travel is not always a necessity, we are looking for those interested in international collaboration. We want to promote people who care for the future of our planet and who share our ethical values.All documentation and application forms are available on the LINA website.
Please note: Due to Creative Europe regulations, the open call is only open to residents or nationals of the 40 countries that participate in the Creative Europe program (of which Switzerland is not a member). It is however possible to apply as a group if at least one member of your team is resident in or holds a passport from one of these countries.Call 4 Models!
We are looking for disused architecture models for our next exhibition 'What if' (25.11.2023-7.4.2024). They will exhibited / given a last moment of glory at S AM to then be transformed as part of our mediation programme into new designs.
