The 20th edition of the Architecture Student Contest, featuring over 200 universities from 33 countries, tasked students with designing impactful and sustainable projects to revitalize urban areas. Organized by Saint-Gobain, in collaboration with local entities, the competition focused on repurposing an abandoned school into a community hub, while creating residential spaces for students. Participants integrated sustainability into their designs, addressing pressing issues like energy efficiency and environmental impact, reflecting a growing trend in architectural education towards responsible building practices.
"Architects are on the front line of the transformation of the built environment. For over 20 years, the Architecture Student Contest has aimed to bring together future architects with Saint-Gobain experts to collaboratively design projects grounded in reality and capable of addressing the major challenges of our time."
"The task for this unique edition of the international student competition organized by the Saint-Gobain Group... is to develop a residential area in an area located near the Grands Ateliers, and the renovation of an old school building in Chimilin into a multi-use building for local associations and organizations."
