There is a tradition in the architecture world of organising competitions for all types of public and private projects. From the St. Louis Arch to the Pompidou Center, the Tribune Tower to Parc de la Villette, architectural competitions have been shown to function not only as a means to produce projects but also to yield ideas that have fundamentally changed architecture, pushing the industry forward. Buildner' goal is to continue in that tradition while building an international network of design students and professionals.

Buildner Architecture Competition Organisers develop and host global design competitions. Its primary goal is to create and build a library of ideas created by and accessible to architects and designers everywhere. Buildner promotes two types of competitions: ideas competitions and project competitions. Ideas competitions are primarily academic exercises to foster the development of concepts focused on specific themes. Project competitions are typically promoted in partnership with a collaborator or client that is seeking solutions for potential projects. We work with a diverse international and interdisciplinary jury to evaluate entries based not only on their ability to respond to a specific brief, but also to recognize outstanding examples of graphics, means of communication, and truly innovative thinking.


OUR VALUES:

Buildner is committed to organizing equal and balanced juries representing a diverse range of professionals in terms of industry, gender, ethnicity, and country of origin. We typically host 25 competitions per year with juries comprising 6-12 individuals with professional backgrounds in architecture, landscape, design, art, entrepreneurship, academia, politics, and event-specific industries.

Competition topics vary widely. We place particular focus on themes of affordable housing, sustainability, and small-scale architecture - topics we believe are critical and topical to the climate and urban crises the world faces today. This generation of designers is specially prepared to address and propose solutions to these problems. BUILDNER aspires to be a resource, and a source of inspiration, for these ideas.
