Even the smallest projects can contain big ideas. Sometimes these ideas, such as new explorations in materials and form, can have significant influences on the practice of architecture. Architects, startups, investors, entrepreneurs, and companies are inventing new means for designing small spaces that enrich lives. All of these ideas fall within the wide-ranging topic of Small-Scale Architecture.
Buildner invites you to explore our selection of Small-Scale Architecture competitions!
Small scale projects sometimes generate ideas which can later be extended to larger scale projects. They not only preform as a testing ground for geomtric, material and construction related considerations, but they are also invaluable when testing ideas on a conceptual level. Or better said, how to combine the two.
