We get it. It can get a little overwhelming keeping up with the dozens of new architecture competitions launching worldwide on any given week — let alone having to stay on top of the multiple deadlines for each and every one. That's why Bustler is here to help! At the end of every week, we'll share a quick selection of our newest design competition submissions that we think are worth a look, as well as some ongoing ones you might have missed the first time. Check out our latest competition recommendations below.

American Roundtable: Call for Proposals
Register/Submit Deadline: Tuesday, Feb 18, 2020
American Roundtable is a new Architectural League initiative, which will bring together on-the-ground perspectives on the condition of American communities and what they need to thrive going forward. The Architectural League will commission up to ten editorial teams to produce reports featuring diverse voices, expressed through diverse media, creating portraits and agendas for places they know well. The initiative focuses on small cities and towns and rural areas. Commissioned teams will be awarded $10,000 to support their work, which will be published digitally on archleague.org and in a series of print publications.
Brewed - Cafe design challenge

Submission Deadline: Monday, Jun 1, 2020
The challenge here is to design a Coffee House, a space that transcends to the concept of cafes that we see today.

It seeks to explore a coffeehouse/cafe for Vienna that embodies today’s architecture style while taking inspiration from its existing heritage.
