Third International Architectural Competition MIKRO EKO KUĆA 2023 for young architects and designers and faculty students

The Third International Architectural Competition Micro Eco House 2023 is intended for young architects, designers, landscape architects and applied artists up to the age of 30 and faculty students from the above fields.

The competition will open the question of an eco-sustainable house, with its adaptation to the natural context and use of renewable energy sources and natural environmentally-sustainable materials, but it should also give an answer about the possible existential minimum of living space while providing all aspects of sustainable comfort. Ecological micro houses can give broad answers about the possibilities of quality and sustainable stay in nature and their use.

The concept of a micro house represents unique archaic objects located in nature, which are theoretically based on the idea of a minimalist house, whose focus is on its functional and form aspects, but also on social issues. It represents a possible answer to the question of minimal and sustainable space for living in the nature.

The aim of the project is to recognize (by redefining the basic human needs for living in nature) define and design a flexible and multifunctional facility as an essential part of the human environment, with the introduction of new technological, constructive, thermotechnical and energy efficient methods, with the use of renewable energy sources, traditional construction methods and natural materials.

Deadline for submission of papers is September 1, 2023. Prize fund is 4.500 euros.

The announcement of the results and the award ceremony will be held at the opening ceremony of the 6th International Manifestation and Congress Sustainable Architecture - Energy Efficiency (SAEE) on Friday, October 6, 2023 at 7 pm, in Yugoslav Film Archive, Uzun Mirkova 1, in Belgrade.
