Competition Details
The term "charette" evolved from a pre 1900's exercise at the Ecole
des Beaux Arts in France. Architectural students were given a design
problem to solve within an alloted time. When that time was up, the
students would rush their drawings form the studio to the Ecole in a
cart to finish drawings on the way. the term evolved to refer to the
intense design exercise itself. today it refers to a creative process
akin to visual brain storming that is used by design professionals to
develop solutions to a design problem within a limited time frame.
The Young Architects Forum (YAF) is announcing the second annual 48
Hour design competition. open to all Students, Designers, and
Architects up to 10 years of licensure. the purpose of this competition
is to provide a venue for designers and architects to showcase their
ability, and to illustrate the value of good design to the greater
public.
