description The purpose of this essay is to analytically review and discuss architectural competitions, mainly through the general views of a few selected working landscape architects, architects and scientists. I have studied the moral and workethical aspects of using graphical presentations as a mean to draw attention, rather than trying to meet the set program points. My results are derived from e-mail interviews, literature studies and studies of the competition entry Stockholmssfären from the competition Stockholmsporten which was held in Sweden early 2011. The literature studies have shown that the available literature on architectural competitions and research on the subject is biased towards architecture rather than landscape architecture. Worth mentioning is also that there is not a lot of available literature, mainly due to lacking research on the subject. The informants for the interviews were selected based upon their academic merits and/or experience of working with or doing scientific research on architectural competitions. The landscape architects’ opinions regarding architectural competitions turned out to be in many ways alike – they seemed to have a pretty relaxed view of competing in architecture. The architectural researcher and the delegate from Sveriges Arkitekter showed some different ideas and made a clear case of the importance of following the program. It seems that architectural competitions are rather different depending on which side of the competition entry you are. Competing architects have their view of how their work should be done – Sveriges Arkitekter’s delegate and the world of science have another. My conclusion after finishing this essay is that you must not lose what is essential to landscape architecture – the user benefit and the creation of architecture suitable for its context. For those reasons I would like to see more research of the subject being done. This would give a clearer picture of what the situation is today and how we could work in the future to avoid architectural competitions being nothing more than a showcase for spectacular presentations and implausible plans.
