This year’s competition “Igniting Change” encourages students to think about how the design of a building relates to its surroundings and its community. Students will be asked to design a new fire station in a small historic downtown. This multi-dimensional program presents many layers of complexity for design exploration and should be an engaging challenge for any student at any skill level who is interested in art, architecture, drafting, or interior design. This design competition is an excellent vehicle for students to explore an interest in architecture and design, as well as a great resume builder. Top prizes of $1,000 in cash and scholarships should be motivating as well! Submissions are due March 28. CLICK HERE to learn more.
