The Etalase 2025 Architecture Competition brings forward the theme Sanctuary of Mind as a response to the growing issue of burnout, especially among younger generations. The theme invites participants to design public open spaces that offer a break from the noise of routines and the constant pressure of everyday life. In a fast-paced and demanding world, we need spaces where the mind can breathe, spaces that foster calmness, self-reflection, and meaningful social interactions.

Through inclusive, human-centered, and comfort-oriented design approaches, participants are encouraged to create spaces that are not only functional and aesthetic but also attentive to the diverse needs of users and responsive to the challenges of our time.
