Introducing University of Vermont’s first student-designed competition: LivingPlace.

University of Vermont is pleased to invite architects, students, engineers, designers, and artists from around the globe to take part in the ‘LivingPlace’ Competition. The LivingPlace is a Vermont-Grown international design competition that encourages the linkage of student-initiated projects and the sustainability needs of the Burlington community through place-based ecological design.

The competition was announced on Tuesday November 19 at the University Heights South ‘GreenHouse’ Residential Learning Community. This Ecological Design Competition is sponsored by the new UVM Ecological Design Collaboratory, a community crossroad for ecological design and supported by a grant from the Thoreau Foundation. The LivingPlace Competition serves as a springboard for the launch of the UVM Ecological Design Collaboratory.

WHY: Community engagement, stronger partnerships, hands-on practice that lead to place-based design.
WHERE: Three sites @ Burlington Waterfront, Burlington High School, or UHS Greenhouse RLC
WHAT: Proposals (design competition submission) for the dynamic and buildable intersection of WATER, FOOD, and PEOPLE.

This competition encourages the linkage of student-initiated projects and the sustainability needs of the Burlington community through place-based ecological design. Competitors are tasked with creating a holistic design submission that integrates storm-water management, sustainable food production, and community engagement. This is an opportunity for designs that include student-community collaboration. For more information regarding the submission process, timeline and registration, please visit the REGISTRATION webpage.

Three sites (Burlington Waterfront, Burlington High School, and University of Vermont Greenhouse Residential Learning Community) have been selected as the location for proposal designs. For more information including the pictures and design documents of the sites, please visit the SITES webpage.
