For the display of the very large volume of projects, held in one of Thessaloniki’s harbour warehouses, six successive walls were installed – one for each of the six international competitions. The walls, which were placed axially in the warehouse, grew progressively in height and length, providing the necessary surfaces for the panels. The size difference challenged the viewer’s perspective. The installation was completed by a set of gigantic bookstands that provided the space for the national competitions.
