Set New Home Standards in the UAE and Be Recognized for Your Innovation – Win €250,000

Dubai has evolved from a humble trading port into a global metropolis renowned for its futuristic skyline and pioneering architectural feats. In the early 20th century, its landscape was shaped by traditional Arab homes featuring internal courtyards and wind towers, designed to endure the harsh arid climate. The discovery of oil in the 1960s marked a turning point, triggering rapid urbanization. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, a surge in construction, fueled by oil revenues, led to the rise of concrete tower blocks and low-rise apartment complexes, accommodating an influx of expatriates drawn to UAE's booming economy. By the 21st century, the UAE witnessed unparalleled architectural advancements. Landmark projects like the Burj Khalifa—the world's tallest building—and the Palm Jumeirah—an artificial archipelago—transformed the country's skyline, solidifying the UAE's reputation as a global hub of architectural ambition and innovation.

This rapid growth has also brought diverse challenges across the UAE, particularly in housing and the difficulty of ensuring dignified living conditions for the working class. Dubai serves as a striking example of how urban expansion has transformed the country, but different geographies and regions within the UAE have distinct needs, shaped by their local environments and communities. The House of the Future competition—organized by Buildner in partnership with the Sheikh Zayed Housing Programme—calls on visionaries to rethink residential architecture across the UAE. With submissions open until April 30, the competition offers a platform for bold ideas that could shape the homes of tomorrow, addressing the varied demands of different locations.

Exploring MVRDV's Mega Mat: A Recycled Plastic Installation for Bangkok Design Week 2025

MVRDV has recently completed Mega Mat, a temporary installation for public gatherings and performances made from recycled plastic mats. Created for Bangkok Design Week, the joint goal of the architects and the Thai Creative Economic Agency was to design a space that also raises awareness about plastic waste and recycling in Thailand. The result is an infographic public space that, in addition to featuring bright, eye-catching colors, follows a color-coded system to organize information about the country's plastic waste processing. Mega Mat takes recycled plastic to reinterpret an everyday household item: the Sua, or mat, on which Thai families have been sitting for generations. This fresh take on a familiar object showcases the potential of using recycled plastic in daily life, embodied in a versatile public space now installed in the heart of Bangkok.

Inflatable Architectures in Public Spaces: Exploring the Works of Conjuntos Empáticos in Spain

How do inflatable structures behave in public spaces? What relationships or connections can they establish among people? From the perspective of Conjuntos Empáticos, inflatable structures act as organisms that engage passersby through their lightness, materiality, and element of surprise, ensuring sensory experiences in various environments and public spaces. These structures can accommodate everything from collective interventions to moments of leisure, encouraging social interaction and creating atmospheres that dissociate the scale of the city from the domestic space.
