small home BIG LIFE competition

 

BRIEF

This competition aims to promote the small house trend.

TAFE and University Building Design and Architecture students are offered the opportunity to participate in this trend by designing and presenting their proposal for a small house that is innovative, functional, energy efficient and buildable.

 

Small house design requires careful attention to how occupants are likely to live, move through and use their small home.

Consideration must also be given to how the small space will be furnished, where belongings will be stored, how guests will be accommodated and, most importantly, how a smaller – than – normal space can be made to feel inviting rather than confining.

The small home BIG LIFE competition challenge s students to show us how a big life is possible in a small home.
