We’d like to take the opportunity to introduce you to the participant of our "Norman Foster Foundation Kharkiv Housing Challenge" competition – Christopher Andrew Williamson from United Kingdom!
Kharkiv Housing Challenge
I know many architects are unenthusiastic about competitions because they think they are encouraged to give away ideas cheaply.
