We’d like to take the opportunity to introduce you to one of our Honorable mention winner for our “Tiny Kiwi Meditation Cabin” competition – Aubin Prost from France!
I am a young graduate of the National School of Architecture in Clermont-Ferrand and I work mainly on projects in rural areas, at small scales of intervention. These are individual houses, renovations and small new buildings.
Architecture must be the concrete expression of a site. The architect must take on board the climatic challenges, the construction know-how, and the local way of life. Architecture must be the result of the choice of a construction method specific to the project’s environment.
Competitions allow a great deal of freedom in writing and in the choice of construction methods. Each project can be developed in a radical and poetic way between structure, composition, and material. These principles can then be worked on at all scales, from territory to detail.
Architecture competitions provide a complementary practice to that of the school or professional career.
