Archstorming Information

Archstorming is an international platform which aims to improve the well-being of people in need through innovative and sustainable architecture. Our mission is to create positive change through architecture and foster a new generation of socially conscious architects. Our humanitarian architecture competitions showcase real projects that address critical issues such as disaster relief, poverty, conflicts and diseases, while serving the fundamental needs of shelter, warmth, access to clean water, education, and community building. Sustainability is the core of our competitions, both in terms of design and construction, challenging our participants to find innovative construction methods, use locally sourced materials, and adopt collaborative easy-to-build techniques, among others, that can be understood and applied by local communities.
