Living City Design Competition
Created by The International Living Building Institute with National Trust for Historic Preservation, Kendeda Fund, Summit Foundation & Metropolis Magazine.
Global design competition launched to award $125,000 in prizes. The Living City Design Competition requires participants to select an existing city
anywhere in the world and conceptually transform it through photo-realistic three-dimensional modeling and renderings. Leveraging the Living
Building Challenge’s already substantial impact on the green building industry, the competition is expected to draw contributions from multi-disciplinary
teams composed of the world’s most talented and daring designers, planners, artists and animators.
