PLOVDIV 2019

Plovdiv 2019
Plovdiv is proud of its ancient heritage and its status as one of the oldest European cities. The identity of the city and its citizens are marked by deep layers of the past. The meeting between different cultures, communities and groups has always been the biggest challenge, as well as the best drive for the city’s development. 

The title “Together” was more than a path to a more integrated community, it is a vision for making culture more accessible so that it can make lives more meaningful, the city more vibrant and attractive.
The research for the crossing points between different social groups, in order to rethink the stereotypes and find out how we can benefit from our differences stood in the center of the project. Forgotten urban spaces as well as peoples’ mindsets were transformed, in order to make Plovdiv a better place to live in and a more attractive tourist destination. Past transformed into future, also through new technologies, in order to create a bridge between eras, generations and cultural and archaeological layers. Slow food, sport, music, the bohemian lifestyle should show how to live completely and sustainably, to enjoy art and nature to the fullest.
