New Modern Home Design
“I signed up hoping to get some ideas for a new modern house we are building.
I submitted the following details:
A detailed program that we had developed under the guidance of an architect. This included a description of every room in the house, our expectation about their relationship to other rooms in the house, the square footage (approximate) of each room.
I also include a professional survey of the lot, and about 30 pictures of the lot. I provided the actual address, so that architects could use online services to get aerial views of the lot and see it in relation to other houses around it.
About 46 architects signed up. 9 finished the competition. We had 2 truly stellar submissions, 3-4 very good submissions, and only 1 pseudo submission.
Throughout the competition, there was an active “wall” that I responded to daily. I provided photographs when needed, a budget for the project when asked, and detailed photographs of other homes I liked to give architects a sense of my aesthetic.
We used this to get solid ideas about how to move forward on building our home. While we didn’t hire an architect who worked on the project, we would have if we had not already selected a local architect. Two of the architects provided many many hours of work and advice on the project that have been instrumental in building our home.
You can use this to get detailed drawings. You can then continue to work with an architect to get construction documents and move to building. We used it for a slightly different purpose — as a way of doing detailed programming and shortcutting the process of figuring out how to configure our house on the lot.
It was an enormously beneficial process, and well worth the $2500.
A few notes: we made our competition 8 weeks, and ended up extending it a week. Longer is better to enable architects to really work on the project. We offered $2500 as prize money — it’s well worth giving at least that much for a complex design question.”
