Five Guiding Principles

Signal Your Intention

The design decisions that you make as part of your submission for this competition must express what your own personal goals are for the future of building with a full appreciation for how that relates to the needs of the human culture to sustain itself.

Restore

The home you design must stop the process of taking and begin the process of giving.

Be Ready to Innovate Further

Your submission will reflect a moment in time while realizing the need to go further still. Anticipate what may be next.

Understand and Prepare for the Learning Curve

How far forward does your design “see”?

Exert Intergenerational Responsibility

The World Belongs to the Living. Consider this as it relates to the objective of loving all children of all species for all time.
