First topic message reminder :

Design Competition
The UP College of Architecture, together
with LaFarge Semento Pilipinas, present:

Ang Pinakamagandang Bahay sa Balat ng Lupa
A design competition about changing the
way we live in the tropics

Everyone thinks of their house as
"home", the most beautiful place to be.

Most of housing designs have been
modeled after European and American
exemplars which are incongruous with our
tropical climate. The resultant living
conditions in these houses would then
necessitate high energy and operating
costs. The organizers feel it is time to
challenge the aspirations of people
through a redefinition of the concept of
beauty in houses.

The competition aims to redefine the
ideal of "beauty" or what is beautiful
about a house to include sustainable
concepts that will speak about how a
house is lived in and how a house
attuned to the tropical climate can be a
beautiful place to live in.

There are two categories and following
prizes will be awarded per category:

Professional Category

1. First Place: PhP 100,000, plus plaque
of award; Award of design contract for
the implementation of the design.
2. Second Place: PhP 75,000, plus plaque
of award
3. Third Place: PhP 50,000, plus plaque
of award

of award;
2. Second Place: PhP 50,000, plus plaque
of award
3. Third Place: PhP 25,000, plus plaque
of award


1. The First Place winner for the
Professional Category will be awarded
the design contract to implement the
winning design. The design will be built
by LCSPI.
2. A professional will be commissioned
by Lafarge Cement Services
(Philippines), Inc. to execute the First
Place winner for the Student Category.

Here s an update about the email i sent last night...To all those who are working abroad.Yes we can join..

Heres the reply...

If your license is active, then you may join.

As regards payment from overseas, perhaps a bank transfer would do. Just inquire with an international bank how this can be done. Or, you can have someone from the Philippines deposit locally on your behalf. Maybe this would be simpler.

Yes, you may submit the form through email. And since we require a copy of the deposit slip as proof of payment, please scan the deposit slip and send it as an attachment to your registration form.

Thank you very much for your interest
