We’re excited to announce a bold new design competition, in collaboration with TerraViva Competitions. This is an open international call for visionary, bold, and interdisciplinary ideas that offer creative solutions to real-world challenges.

The Field Station Competition is now live! https://www.terravivacompetitions.com/the-field-station-competition-2025/

Get your team together: this is your chance to collaborate, experiment, and make your mark. Design competitions are a powerful platform for creative exploration, pushing the boundaries of what design can do and how it can shape the future. You’ll also connect with a global design community. Entries will be reviewed by a distinguished jury panel of U.S. and internationally based architects.

Winning proposals will be exhibited during the Architecture Exchange East 2025 Conference, themed “Design the Future: Advancing Technology, Community & Business” to a wide audience of design professionals and industry leaders.
