Ninth International CAA Student Design Competition

Housing our elderly

Respectful, facilitating and accommodating

Do not go gentle into that good night
Old age should burn and rave at close of day
Rage, rage against the dying of the light
- Dylan Thomas

Outline

Architecture students from around the world are invited to design forward thinking environments for our aging populations. Individual and team entries are welcome and multidisciplinary collaborations are encouraged. An international jury will award prizes totalling up to 4,600 GBP. Judging has been timed to allow winning entrants to be celebrated at the Commonwealth Association of Architects (CAA) Conference in Dhaka, Bangladesh in February 2013. Winning entries will be published in the Architectural Review so read through the attached brief and participate in this exciting and relevant international competition.
