Current Tenders & Competitions

Participants are free to choose any existing structure—whether currently in use, abandoned, or neglected—anywhere in the world. From unused storefronts and aging sheds to underutilized garages or portions of larger buildings, each project should demonstrate the potential to transform a limited footprint into something innovative and impactful. The only guideline is that the project should fit within a footprint of approximately 250 square meters.

This competition celebrates the ingenuity required to balance sustainability, functionality, and design within an existing space. How can we rethink these structures to serve new purposes, meet contemporary needs, and make a positive impact on their communities? Re:Form is an invitation to bring fresh perspectives to old spaces, showing that thoughtful adaptation can be a powerful tool in shaping a sustainable future.

Designs should focus on sustainability, functionality, and broader community impact, showing how adaptive reuse can address contemporary challenges. There are no restrictions on the building program; participants are free to
propose any type of use, from cultural and commercial spaces to residential or community facilities. The goal is to give new life to the chosen structure, demonstrating how thoughtful adaptation can create meaningful and relevant spaces for today’s world. Proposals should demonstrate a conscientious approach to financial feasibility, focusing on innovative yet practical solutions to maintain low costs while achieving the desired architectural objectives.
