Competition Purpose
The 2005 World Sustainable Building Conference (SB05Tokyo) will be held from
September 27th to 29th, 2005. To mark this event, The SB05Tokyo National
Conference Board, Shinkenchiku-sha, Co., Ltd., and Yoshioka Foundation will
jointly sponsor The Shinkenchiku Residential Design Competition 2005. Each year
since 1965, The Shinkenchiku Residential Design Competition has called for
entries that explore new potential in architecture through the design of the
residence, a place for human dwelling,” asking an architect of international
standing to serve as a judge in selecting the winning submission. This time, in
a departure from past competitions, two architects, Tadao Ando and Richard
Rogers, will serve as judges. Shuzo Murakami (The Chief of the National
Conference Board and Professor of Keio University) will serve as coordinator.
The judging will be done in two stages, with the second-stage public jury to be
held at the SB05Tokyo conference.
Theme Description
In the 20th century, mankind attained prosperity by creating a culture of
mass production and mass consumption. For that prosperity we must pay a terrible
price, however, for we now confront a crisis of global proportions—our
destruction of the earth’s ecosystem. The signs of impending catastrophe are
numerous. They include global warming, ozone destruction, receding glaciers, and
the depletion of mining, farming, and marine resources.
Since 1987, when the Brundtland
Commission of the United Nations popularized the concept of “sustainable
development,” sustainability has become a paradigm for an age of environmental
awareness. Numerous hopes are confided in this word, among them a desire for
intergenerational ethics, for preservation of the ecosystem, and for historical
and cultural continuance. Under pressure from accelerating global population
growth, however, sustainability is growing increasingly difficult to maintain.
Beginning with the Club of Rome,
organizations of authorities, in all sectors, have issued warnings. If mankind
maintains his present economic and industrial systems, it is believed,
catastrophic change will occur in the earth’s ecosystem within 50 to 60 years.
We have little time remaining. We must act for the sake of sustainability. This
is the purport of our theme this time: Action for Sustainability.
The building sector consumes 30 to
50% of the earth’s resources and energy. As such, the building sector bears a
great responsibility to advance the cause of sustainability, and expectations
are high that it can do so. SB05Tokyo, a global conference on sustainable
building, will be held in Tokyo next autumn. Opinion leaders in such fields as
industry, government, education, and business, from around the world, will
gather at the conference to discuss sustainable building from wide-ranging
perspectives. We plan to hold the second-stage public jury for this design
competition at SBO5 Tokyo. Through the residential design proposals submitted to
this competition, we seek to send a strong message to the conference, one that
will stimulate thoughtful discussion among the experts in sustainable building
who gather here from many nations. (Shuzo Murakami)
