Design Build Challenge Seattle 2008

DESIGN BUILD
CHALLENGE 2008
Hosted by TILT in Seattle, WA

Design Build Challenge is an annual design and construction competition open to participants of all disciplines and levels of experience. The DBC '08, taking place March 27-30, focuses on encouraging built responses to community needs in designated cities. Join the competition.

The DBC ’08 focuses on various marginalized communities within Seattle that are currently facing issues of displacement due to rapid urban redevelopment. Participants will be given a contact list of potential clients—organizations with a community design need—with whom teams will collaborate to develop a meaningful and appropriate design response. The DBC aims to emphasize craft, creative reuse, environmental awareness, and innovation in response to the needs of the displaced communities identified in this challenge.
