The aim of this competition is to design a ‘SUSTAINABLE FANBOX’, a new typological structure and mascot for the games that would be the prime interaction and gathering zone for the spectators during the Rio Olympics 2016. The competition seeks to recreate the atmosphere of a stadium in a temporary structure where fans who miss out on the live experience could connect with the Olympic games virtually.

The FANBOX should communicate a sustainable and profound architectural statement being able to attract and converge visitors around it for intense 24X7 experience of the Rio games. The participants are asked to design a SUSTAINABLE FANBOX for the Rio Olympics 2016, on one of the major tourist attractions of Rio de Janeiro, the Copacabana beach.
