Morocco Oasis Retreat architecture competition winners revealed! - Buildner is proud to announce the results of the Morocco Oasis Retreat Architecture Competition, an international challenge that invited architects, designers, and urbanists to envision a self-sustaining oasis in the Moroccan desert. This competition encouraged innovative approaches to blending modern sustainability principles with traditional Moroccan architectural techniques while addressing critical environmental concerns such as water conservation, passive cooling, and resource management. The submissions reflected a deep understanding of the desert’s unique landscape, offering inspiring solutions that seamlessly integrate architecture with the natural environment. - The competition was evaluated by a distinguished jury of internationally acclaimed architects, urbanists, and sustainability experts, including professionals from Zaha Hadid Architects, SAOTA , Patkau Architects , Sasaki , and more. The jurors assessed each project based on innovation, environmental sensitivity, functionality, and cultural integration. Buildner extends its gratitude to all participants for their outstanding contributions and congratulates the winners for their exceptional designs that redefine the relationship between architecture and extreme environments. - The 1st Prize was awarded to Ondřej Chudy and Petr Kousal (TMD, United Kingdom) for their project Zellige Horizon. Their design skillfully integrates sustainable building practices, local materials, and Moroccan construction techniques to create a harmonious balance between luxury, community engagement, and environmental resilience. - The 2nd Prize went to Yi Yang Chai (Malaysia) for Enclave of Engrave, a serene sanctuary designed with cascading spatial arrangements, passive cooling techniques, and self-sufficient energy systems. - The 3rd Prize was awarded to Maryam Salamiaraghi (Olay Studio, Turkey) for a project that reinterprets traditional riads and courtyard structures into a modern, sustainable retreat centered around a structured water management system. These groundbreaking designs set new benchmarks for sustainable desert architecture, proving that innovation and cultural heritage can coexist to create resilient, future-ready communities. Buildner looks forward to seeing how these visionary concepts inspire future developments in sustainable architecture worldwide. - For further details on the winning projects, visit https://architecturecompetitions.com/moroccooasis - #MoroccoOasisRetreat #ArchitectureCompetition #Buildner #Morocco #TMDstudio #OlayStudio #UnitedKingdom #Turkey #Malaysia
