Co-designing Equity in the Public Realm
Register/Submit Deadline: Thursday, Sep 1, 2022
"The London Festival of Architecture (LFA) is collaborating with the City of London Corporation, its cultural district Culture Mile, and Foundation for Future London to launch ‘Co-designing Equity in the Public Realm,’ a new design competition. The competition will deliver one or more temporary public realm interventions in Smithfield and East London that collectively develop a deeper understanding of the public’s experience of streets and public spaces. ‘Co-designing Equity in the Public Realm’ is seeking a multi-disciplinary team to create temporary small-scale intervention(s) and activations in Spring/Summer of 2023, that have been informed by public engagement and education activities."
The Architecture Drawing Prize 2022
Register/Submit Deadline: Friday, Sep 9, 2022
"The Architecture Drawing prize was launched in 2017 by Make Architects, Sir John Soane’s Museum and the World Architecture Festival. The prize, sponsored by Iris Ceramica Group, was established to celebrate and showcase the art and skill of architectural drawing. The prize welcomes entries from architects, designers and students from around the world while celebrating the significance of drawing as a tool in capturing and communicating architectural ideas."
Miami Floating Housing Competition
Registration Deadline: Tuesday, Nov 8, 2022
Submission Deadline: Wednesday, Nov 9, 2022
"The problems of sea-level rise and housing affordability in Miami merge together as a new phenomenon called “climate gentrification.” Current residents of neighborhoods located on the higher ground within the city are being displaced by coastal residents looking to escape the rising seas and flooding. [...] The recent development and revitalization of the neighborhoods brings about its own underlying uncertainties: will longtime residents be able to find affordable housing near their current homes and communities? And, if so, how can they protect themselves from the risk of being displaced again due to sea-level rise? Arch Out Loud is calling on designers to propose floating housing ideas in Miami’s Biscayne Bay."
Dewan Award for Architecture 2022
Register/Submit Deadline: Saturday, Oct 1, 2022
"The eponymous Dewan Award for Architecture is an annual open-ideas architectural competition. The newest award is introduced as part of the Tamayouz Excellence Award programme that champions and celebrates the best architecture in Iraq and worldwide. The exciting international award focuses on designs that respond to the local challenges in Iraq. Submissions highlight the country’s trials and provide dialogue and an uncompromising open source of ideas tackling social issues."
