The biggest architectural ideas competition is heading toward an exciting climax!

The Main Entry Deadline of\u00a0Friday October 21st, 2022<\/strong> is fast approaching.<\/p>\n

The brief is a simple one: Tell a powerful story about architecture with a single drawing<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Enter the One Drawing Challenge<\/a><\/p>\n

Entrants are challenged to create one drawing that powerfully communicates your architectural proposal and the experience of those that would inhabit it. It can be located anywhere in the world and be at any scale. It can take the form of a plan, section, elevation, perspective or sketch. As long as it portrays part or all of a building or group of buildings, it is eligible. This should be accompanied by a short description of your proposal, no more than 150 words.<\/p>\n

Now you know the task at hand, the next question is likely to be \u2014 how do I win? The answers lies in the criteria by which the Finalist drawings will be judged by our expert panel of architects and influencers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The judging process for the One Drawing Challenge is designed to reflect the multi-faceted qualities of architectural drawings. Our outstanding cast of jurors will be asked to select winning entries based on their communicative and aesthetic qualities, as well as their impact and ability to \u201cgo viral\u201d on social media. Entries that stand out in one or more of the following categories stand a great chance of being a Winner.<\/p>\n

The Jury will evaluate drawings based on the following criteria:<\/p>\n

Communication<\/h2>\n

Unlike a piece of pure art, the most important quality of an architectural drawing is its ability to communicate the design intent behind an architectural proposal. Further to this, a good drawing can tell the story of a building and those that might inhabit it in a single snapshot. The image can communicate many different things and focus on one or more of the following aspects: Spatial layout, technical details, materials, connections between architectural elements, relationship to context, the transition between spaces, and more.<\/p>\n

Aesthetics<\/h2>\n

A beautiful drawing is undeniably appealing, but at their best, the aesthetics of a drawing are about more than just beauty. They convey the essence of the architecture they are portraying, and the atmosphere of a space. A well considered drawing can portray a specific architectural language that speaks to the author\u2019s wider design philosophy. Aesthetics may also concern the portrayal of an untidy, chaotic or even \u201cugly\u201d brand of architecture to paint a powerful picture of certain environments.<\/p>\n

Impact<\/h2>\n

When communication and aesthetics are perfectly combined, they can produce an impactful image that is eagerly shared among a huge design-oriented community. Virality is not an exact science, but Instagram experts understand the bold qualities that make an image memorable and shareable. The ingredients of an impactful architectural drawing include but are not limited to: Bold geometry, unusual angles, rich color combinations, sharp contrasts, rhythmic patterns and strong legibility.<\/p>\n
