Emerging Professionals: Design a House That You Can Afford!

The “In the Pursuit of Housing” design competition, co-sponsored by the Boston Society of Architects and Architectural Record, invites young professionals and students to think critically about the housing issues facing their generation by designing housing that they themselves could afford. The biennial competition gathers and displays a wide range of housing designs for urban, suburban, and rural communities—with an emphasis on socially progressive and sustainable designs for multi-unit and single-family dwellings that can serve as prototypes. Undergraduate and graduate students currently in architecture school anywhere in the world and individuals who have earned their architecture degrees within the last five years (after 2003) are invited to enter the competition. Entries are due March 3; find a detailed call for entries on the BSA Web site.
