Buildner’s Concrete Pavilion competition invites architects and designers to reimagine one of architecture’s most iconic materials. As part of the Buildner Material Studies series, this competition asks participants to design a small-scale pavilion—up to 50 m²—that explores the expressive, structural, and tactile potential of concrete. The pavilion should serve as an exhibition space that informs and engages the public, celebrating concrete through form, detail, and innovation.
Participants are encouraged to choose a site anywhere in the world and propose a concept that responds thoughtfully to its context. Designs should showcase concrete not only as a construction material, but as a medium for storytelling, sustainability, and spatial experience.
Buildner will award a total prize fund of €10,000, including a 1st prize of €5,000, and additional awards for sustainability and student submissions. The final registration deadline is November 27, 2025, and winners will be announced on February 24, 2026
