Living Steel Honours Sustainable Arcitecture in UK Winning DesignsLiving Steel's 2nd International Architecture Competition for Sustainable Housing UK winner, Cartwright Pickard and short listed finalists will be honoured at a UK winners event on the 18th October 2007.
London firm, Cartwright Pickard will showcase its winning design at the event hosted by steel manufacturer Corus and taking place from 7pm at The RIBA Headquarters.
Living Steel announced the winners of its 2nd International Architecture Competition for Sustainable Housing in Brussels last month and Cartwright Pickard was awarded €50,000 and a contract to construct its steel housing design.
Cartwright Pickard's design utilised a flexible kit of standardised parts that can be arranged in a series of unique formations.
The pre-fabricated modules are factory built and can be fully fitted out prior to delivery to the building site.
The International Competition for Sustainable Housing is a key activity for Living Steel, the International Iron and Steel Institute (IISI) worldwide programme developed to stimulate innovation in the design and construction of residential steel housing.
Launched to develop innovative approaches to meet sustainable housing needs, underlying the competition is a desire to address the economic, environmental and social aspirations of a growing world population.
