TREEHOUSING challenges students, professional architects and engineers around the world to develop innovative wood housing and urban building solutions through two distinct open competitions:
Treehousing Durban - challenges participants to design a residential and/or mixed-use complex on a site in Durban, South Africa.
Treehousing Global - challenges participants to design affordable housing on a site of their choosing, anywhere in the world, with a focus on improving and providing global housing solutions in wood.
Criteria for the judging of submissions will include:
Wood as the primary structural material.
Creative and innovative use of wood in the design solution
Successful response of the design to its surrounding context, and successful response to basic architectural concepts such as human activity needs, structural integrity, and coherence of architectural vocabulary.
Demonstration of the overall environmental benefits including carbon sequestration using wood in the design, plus any other strategies to reduce the design’s carbon footprint.
