Can I re-submit my design to another Buildner competition?

Option 1: Submit Your Design Again as a New Competition Entry

If you would like to enter a project that has previously been submitted, published, or presented, you may be able to use the same design concept again.

The key distinction is between the design idea itself and the presentation materials used to communicate it.



If your presentation materials have never been published


You may submit them as they are.

This includes:

• Renders
• Diagrams
• Sketches
• Plans
• Sections
• Elevations
• Presentation boards

If your presentation materials have been published before



You may still reuse the same design concept, but all presentation materials must be visually updated before submission.

Examples of acceptable updates include:

• New renders
• Different graphic layouts
• Updated visual styles
• Modified colors
• Revised diagrams
• New presentation boards

The underlying architectural concept does not need to change. However, the presentation must be newly prepared and visually distinct from previously published versions.

This option requires a new registration and a new competition submission.

Option 2: Automatic Lifetime Resubmission

For selected Buildner competition series, eligible participants may activate Automatic Lifetime Resubmission.

This optional service allows the same submission to be automatically entered into future editions of the same competition series through a one-time activation.

Instead of registering again and uploading the project multiple times, your submission continues competing automatically in future eligible editions.



How it works

After activation:

• Future eligible editions are entered automatically
• No additional registration is required
• No new uploads are required
• No panel setup is required
• No further participant action is required
• Your original presentation materials are reused exactly as originally submitted.
  
  

Important restrictions

Automatically resubmitted projects cannot be:

• Edited
• Modified
• Updated
• Re-uploaded
• Replaced

The submission remains locked and is entered into future eligible editions exactly as originally uploaded.



Who can use it?

Automatic Lifetime Resubmission is only available for selected competition series and eligible submissions.

Projects that have already received a shortlist selection, honorable mention, or winning position are not eligible to continue using the same presentation materials through the Automatic Lifetime Resubmission program.



How do I know if my project qualifies?

If your project is eligible for Automatic Lifetime Resubmission, you will see a notification within your Project Upload Panel. Eligible submissions will display an activation option that allows you to enroll the project into the Automatic Lifetime Resubmission program.

Which Option Should I Choose?

Use a new competition registration if you want to update your presentation materials, develop the project further, or submit the design to a different competition.

Use Automatic Lifetime Resubmission if your competition series supports it and you want the same submission to continue competing automatically in future editions without creating new entries.

If you are unsure whether your project is eligible for either option, please contact Buildner support for assistance.
