To celebrate the forthcoming publication of Ecohouse 2 by Sue Roaf in March 2003 Architectural Press are proud to present the 2003 Design Competition for an Ecohouse. The Competition The challenge we are setting you is to design an Ecohouse for your own home town, wherever it is. The two
key aims are to make it: Design Specifications You are to design an Ecohouse for a family of two adults and two children and an elderly, disabled grandmother. The house should have four bedrooms. The site
and location are of your choice but should be concisely described
on your entry. The site should be in your own home area so you understand
the climate and the local architecture instinctively. The house must
not be more that 180 square meters in floor plan size for internal
rooms and any height, form, materials and style you like can be used.
The submission must explain the 'Ecodesign' ideas on which the design
of the house is based. The house should be demonstrably comfortable
in summer and winter.
