Grand Prize: $1000

Brief

Millions of people around the world are thinking about how they can radically change their lives for the better. Could living in a tiny house be one of those ways?

At DesignClass we are passionate about exploring how design can have a positive impact on people's lives. Few things are as relevant to this mission as exploring how the concept of home can adapt, grow, or maybe shrink to match the needs of the modern person and family. 

We don't believe design has to be fancy or grand but it does have to be intentional. A tiny house is about as intentional as you can get.

This is your challenge, design the tiny house of your dreams. A place you could call home; whatever circumstances you are in or location you find yourself. Explore what the tiny house of your future could be.

Use this competition as an opportunity to expand your creative energy and seek out new worlds and possibilities. Here are some questions to help spark some ideas. 

• How would my tiny house respond to my city, town, or culture?
• How would it respond to how I live or work?
• How would a tiny house adapt or help fulfill my aspirations?
• How would my tiny house utilize or ignore modern technology?
