AG360 is pleased to welcome all architects and architecture students from around the world to Beach Hostel Unit: International Architecture Competition. The Beach Hostel Unit is presented as a real and different option for all those who want to be in balance with the natural ecosystem but with the comfort of modern life.

For the conception of the project, it is essential to understand who it is directed towards, for which it must have Smart House characteristics, which satisfy any basic activity of young travellers. It must have the capacity to configure itself as a hostel, Airbnb-style bedrooms and a complete family unit, so it will have private spaces and shared services. It will function as a stand-alone item and will be part of a set of 8 units. It will be located within a natural landscape and should stand out for its geometric and contemporary aesthetics. It should be designed as a prefabricated prototype that is easy to build anywhere in the world and designed as a construction that can withstand the effects of time and easy maintenance. At all times, the landscape and its natural resources must be prioritized.

Participants:

The contest is aimed at all qualified architects and architecture students
of the world, as long as Spanish is maintained as the official language. In
the case of constituting professional or student teams, a member of the
latter must be designated as the only representative and valid interlocutor

Said representative will be the one who receives the corresponding prize,

within each team.
