Competition: A Kiosk for the Future

Introduction
The Kiosk Competition’s aim is to question the function and form of a street newspaper shop at the time of media digitization. Do we still need street newsstands? How should they approach customers? What is the purpose of a kiosk in the future?

In the last decade, readers of newspapers and magazines have mostly migrated online, but a significant number of people who prefer to read printed newspapers and magazines is also increasingly noticeable. Paper requires a different approach to both the content and visual form design, but also enables a different contact with readers. Newspapers come to life offline, and readers often come to cherish contact with vendors or even with each other. (Un)expected interactions always hide the potential of the added value. Kiosks are thus a part of the street furniture in the cities – and the common good. At Outsider, we believe that they are relevant again today. They just need to be rediscovered!

Competition task
We are announcing an international competition for the design of a modern kiosk. The competition seeks answers to the question: what is the purpose of the modern kiosk, and how should it be designed as a modern architectural facility?

We are looking for innovative solutions. Can a kiosk be more than just a small building, where newspapers, sweets and drinks are sold, often through an open window? And how can a kiosk of the future connect the digital and analogue worlds?

In Slovenia, there is a rich kiosks heritage, from Plečnik’s kiosk, a small architectural capriccio, to Maechtig’s kiosk K67, an ideal product of industrial design. The success of the K67 was in the combination of mass production (modularity), and completely new material at the time, polyester. What about today? Which technology can meet the modern challenges of environmentally friendly and user-friendly design?

The competition’s task is therefore to consider the importance of the kiosk in the urban space, its content, purpose, and form or architecture. What should the kiosk contain, how should serve its users, and what can it offer to the space where it is located?

Program
The kiosk must provide a minimum internal area (2 m2 or more) and basic functions: sales areas, mini-warehouse, space for a cash register, entrance, and sales window. Kiosks are usually without toilets. All other software solutions are entirely up to the contestants. We encourage innovative solutions, which should also be based on economic feasibility or sustainability.

Location
Location is not specified. The kiosk can be either located in a historic center of a town or in a more generic setting. Preferably it should work well in different places. 

Materials
Materials are not specified. However, we wish for the contestants to consider what materials and technologies can answer the modern problem of mass production and sustainable use. Although the implementation of competition’s solutions is not planned, we expect feasible solutions.

Conditions of participation
The competition is open to architects, urban planners, landscape architects, industrial designers, painters, sociologists, philosophers, or students of the listed sciences.
