About the competitionParticipants are invited to design a conceptual draft of a timber structure home for a South African family with three kids. There are no restrictions as to the size of the plot or to the budget. It is solely up to the author to decide about the requirements of the family.

TThe objective of the competition is to encourage general interest in modern sustainable construction and offer young architects an opportunity to explore pleasant and environmentally friendly housing designs. At the same time, the competition should open innovative construction concepts to the South African public, especially young families.

TThe Timber Competition is organized by the Wood Student Foundation (in cooperation with the Hout Bay House research project team) and HWZ International South Africa. This scheme will provide the participants with direct access to innovative sustainable building materials & concepts, e.g. cross laminated timber (CLT).
