International Architecture Competition

The Cube – Desert house

Awarded: 3rd Prize
Organizer: worldarchitecture
Design year: 2019
Footprint area: 36 sqm
Floor: 2

The competition was designed to seek the creation of ideas and concepts related to exploring the possibilities for living in harsh environments, as well as simultaneously raising awareness of the environmental sustainability. Participants were challenged to conceive a new and original concept for temporary house in the desert, such as “portable cabin” or “transportable home”.

This winning project idea consisted of a new architectural concept for designing cubic houses that contain multiple smaller movable CUBES (rooms), which give flexibility of living and variability of using spaces. “The Cube” is a new concept that allows inhabitants themselves to build the house without using machines.
