5 key facts about this project
01
Reclaimed bricks are used in the cabin construction to enhance sustainability.
02
A central pool serves as a focal point for relaxation and social gatherings.
03
Each cabin includes a double-sided fireplace for efficient heating and ambiance.
04
The wine tasting area integrates local viticulture into the guest experience.
05
Rainwater collection systems promote resource conservation on-site.

The Vineyard Oasis project is set in a scenic vineyard, designed to create a harmonious space that combines leisure, accommodation, and social interaction. The layout features various cabins arranged to promote relaxation and connection with the natural surroundings. The focus is on enhancing the guest experience while respecting the vineyard environment.

Cabin Configuration
The design includes multiple cabins that cater to both private and communal needs. Each cabin provides essential amenities like a bathroom, kitchen, storage, bedroom, work nook, and a double-sided fireplace. These features create functional spaces that ensure comfort and invite guests to engage in various activities.

Leisure Areas
A central leisure zone is prominent in the layout, with a pool that acts as a gathering spot for relaxation. A hot tub placed next to one of the cabins offers guests an additional option for unwinding. The wine tasting area serves as a focal point for community engagement, enabling guests to explore the local wines and experience the vineyard fully.

Sustainability Considerations
Sustainability principles are embedded in the design. The project reuses existing geometries to limit disruption to the site, while salvaging and reusing brick helps minimize waste. Collecting roof rainwater further emphasizes responsible resource management, demonstrating a commitment to environmental stewardship.

Design Atmosphere
The atmosphere of Vineyard Oasis is tranquil, reflecting a thoughtful relationship with the landscape. The arrangement of cabins and communal areas enhances the overall experience, allowing guests to connect deeply with their surroundings. This integration of architecture and environment creates a welcoming destination for relaxation amid the vineyard.

`
Competition organisers

The Buildner’s Unbuilt Award 2025 is an international architecture competition dedicated to recognizing and celebrating the value of unrealized architectural designs. It invites architects, designers, and students worldwide to submit visionary projects that have not yet been constructed, highlighting the power of ideas and the creativity behind the design process. By focusing on unbuilt work, the competition aims to bring forward concepts that shape the future of architecture and push the boundaries of the profession. 

Participants can compete in three categories based on project scale: Small Wonders (up to 100 m²), Medium Marvels (101–999 m²), and Large Visions (over 1,000 m²). Each category winner will receive €20,000, and additional prizes include honorable mentions, student awards, and a special Best Presentation Award. Winning projects will gain significant international exposure through Buildner’s publicity campaign and a feature article on ArchDaily, providing a unique opportunity to showcase creative ideas to a global audience. 

The Buildner’s Unbuilt Award 2025 encourages entrants to submit any type of unbuilt project, from conceptual visions to detailed designs, celebrating bold innovation without the constraints of realization. Important deadlines: registration closes on October 30, 2025; submissions are due by November 20, 2025; winners will be announced on December 17, 2025.
