Background to the Competition
The 2023 City Centre Sustainable Housing Design competition in South Africa was a joint initiative of the CIB Working Commissions in Architectural Design and Management (W096), Smart and Sustainable Built Environments (W116), and Construction in Developing Countries (W107); and the Future of the City Centre International Network as part of CIB’s 70th anniversary. The City Centre Sustainable Design Housing Competition (CCSDHC) was targeted at teams of third year architectural students, and students in other disciplines at ten South African universities. It was sponsored by the National Home Builders Registration Council (NHBRC) in South Africa and Boogertman and Partners. It was being hosted by the University of Pretoria, Department of Architecture.
