The OpenArchitectureNetwork is looking for nominations that highlight breakthrough design solutions with the power and potential to improve our lives and the world. These designs may improve the human spirit, increase awareness of the environment, or respond to areas of need in the world, whether to provide shelter and clean water or address climate change and humanitarian crises.
Design means: – encompassing architecture, urban planning, product, landscape, graphic, interior, and industrial design – although we invite new definitions that defy this traditional definition.
Here are the criteria:
• AN EMERGING, BREAKTHROUGH DESIGN
• IMPROVES LIVES AND THE WORLD – SOCIAL INNOVATION
• SINGLE PROJECT, PRODUCT OR BUILDING
• REPLICABLE
• EXISTING PROTOTYPE MODEL OR COMPLETED PROJECT SINCE 2006
