WHAT IS THE ART AND SCIENCE OF BUILDING RESPONSIBLY

More than half of the world's population is now urban. With growing urbanization and expansion of built-up spaces, the vulnerability of our cities has also significantly increased due to the complexity of new challenges ranging from economic to social to ecological. The need for a healthier and more responsible discourse within architecture and design cannot be more pressing.

Responsible Architecture/Design involves consciously designing spaces and structures that respond to the climate and context, consider the needs of the community, and improve the quality of life of its users.

Right from the choice of site to the end of the life-cycle of the building, design to inspire the current and future generations to create more opportunities for an inclusive, accessible, and sustainable world.

about

Architectural Competition

Responsible Architecture involves consciously designing spaces and structures that respond to the climate and context, consider the needs of the community, and improve the quality of life of its users. To design responsibly, one must acknowledge challenges such as socioeconomic inequalities, diversity of mental and physical abilities of users, diversity in culture and thought, access to resources - both natural and manmade, and climate change. Responsibility also means designing to inspire the current and future generations to create more opportunities for an inclusive, accessible and sustainable world. Architects have the ability to address all these aspects in a holistic manner through their design decisions and delivery.

about

Interior Design Competition

Within the context of Transparence, “Responsibility in Design” involves taking care of every single aspect of design, right from the choice of the site to the end of the life-cycle of the building. Participants will be able to showcase their capabilities in creating intelligent designs, improving the functionality of spaces, and ensuring the comfort, well-being and safety of the users and inhabitants. It will also be important to minimise the carbon footprint, and if possible, achieve a carbon-negative site. The brief encourages the adoption of lean and light construction practices, reducing wastage of resources, the reuse and recycling of materials, the use of prefabrication and dry construction techniques, and the adaptive reuse of built structures.
