Call for Submissions for Holcim Awards: A Sustainable Design Competition Showcasing How to Build Better
The built environment shapes all our lives. It is also largely responsible for human-made alterations to our planet’s ecosystems. So, to allow all life on earth to be sustained, we must urgently transform the way we build – at pace and at scale. As a non-profit organization deeply committed to enabling this change, the Holcim Foundation has reshaped its flagship Holcim Awards competition to focus on bringing to light and rewarding real-world case studies that exemplify the most innovative practice in sustainable construction.
