KAM Zlín is looking for its head

The statutory city of Zlín decided at the end of 2019 to establish a contributory organization Office of the Architect of the City of Zlín, whose focus will be on conceptual, methodological, and communication activities in the field of urbanism and spatial development, extending to a wide range of overall development of the city of Zlín, including its connections to the surrounding area. The aim of the established contributory organization is to create urban and transport studies and also to work on the city's territorial plan, with the goal of preparing the conceptual development of the city of Zlín.

The main tasks of KAM Zlín will include the creation of strategic, urban, and spatial development documents, the preparation of qualified analyses and materials for further project activities primarily in urbanism, public space, transport, and public investments. The scope of work will also include organizing competitions, involving the public in decision-making and planning for the city, promotion, education, and coordination of interdisciplinary cooperation.

The city of Zlín has an excellent architectural tradition that it wants to build upon. The goal is for the public space of the city to be realized in a quality, conceptual way, and to be friendly to the city's residents. KAM Zlín is to be a respected institution that will coordinate individual constructions and processes in the city and the revitalization of public spaces so that they interlink and complement each other. It should also reconcile the interests of residents, the city, and investors.

Currently, the Office of the Architect of the City of Zlín is looking for its director. If you are an experienced professional in this field and are interested in participating in the urban development of the city inspired by Baťa, more information regarding the selection process can be found HERE.
