Call For Entries: AIA Students 'Library for the 21st Century Design'
CALL FOR ENTRIES


Deadline: 3 December 2008

Sponsored by Kawneer and administered by the American Institute of Architecture Students (AIAS), the program will challenge students to learn about building materials, specifically architectural aluminum building products and systems and their assembly in the design of a library.

While open to any student, the competition is designed for advanced students. Total prize money is $7,225, including $2,500 for the winning design.

The objectives of this competition are:

  • To research, respond to and highlight the unique aspects of designing a library that serves the selected site and community.

  • To build knowledge about materials, products, and installation (primarily Kawneer architectural aluminum building products and systems that can help earn LEED certification points).

  • To design a sustainable facility utilizing USGBC LEED building standards.

  • To design a facility that looks to the educational, cultural and service needs of the community both now and into the future.

  • To encourage designers to utilize sustainable and universal design principles for development of both the building and site.

    The designer (or team) can choose any site.
