Project Development Main goals have always been a balance between public and private interests, concepts to attract investors and sustained conversions and growth. An important part of these processes are the organisation of competitions among internationally renowned architects, engineers and city planners. Citytecture could draw on a long Swiss tradition of competitions for public buildings, extended to private ventures in order to obtain optimal solutions. The results of such competitions were usually accompanied by our offices to building stages, together with the winning teams.
