Welcome to the Young Architects Competition (YAC)

The Young Architects Competition (YAC) is an association dedicated to promoting architectural competitions among young designers, whether they are graduates or students. Our aim is twofold:

Encouraging Design-Related Research

YAC is committed to regularly providing tangible architectural or urban planning projects in order to encourage design-related research. By offering these projects, we hope to inspire reflections about physical places that can accommodate the increasingly volatile and dynamic human activities of our time. We believe that through research and exploration, we can find innovative solutions to address the challenges posed by the ever-changing needs of society.

Endorsing Young Architects’ Creativity and Talent

YAC aims to endorse the creativity and talent of young architects by granting adequate prizes and providing exposure through paper and web platforms. We believe that young architects have the potential to bring fresh perspectives and innovative ideas to the design industry. By showcasing their work, we aim to give them the recognition they deserve and create opportunities for them to further develop their skills.

Breathing New Life into Design Culture

YAC’s overarching goal is to breathe new life into the design culture by pragmatically addressing issues related to human action and soil consumption. We recognize the importance of sustainable and responsible design practices that consider the impact on the environment and society. Through our competitions and initiatives, we hope to foster a culture of design that prioritizes these values and encourages architects to create spaces that are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also functional, sustainable, and conducive to human well-being.

Join the Challenge

We invite numerous architects to join us in this challenge. Whether you are a recent graduate or a current student, we believe that every young architect has the potential to make a difference. By participating in our competitions, you will have the opportunity to showcase your skills, gain recognition, and contribute to the advancement of design and architecture.

Join YAC and be part of a community that is dedicated to promoting architectural excellence and creating a positive impact through design.
