The International Union of Architects (UIA) – the UNESCO and the Federation
of Architects Associations of the Mexican Republic (FCARM) integrated by 70
Arquitects Associations, under the sponsorship of the Government of the State of Guanajuato, Mexico, have decided to carry out a World Competition “Architecture, Urban Development and Sustainable Housing.”

In today’s Global context in which countries develop, and in search of improvement in the quality of the populations life, the competition is organized, taking into consideration sustainable development. It will be very important to rescue, integrate and strengthen the cultural traditions of the locality, respecting the historical patrimony of its environment.

Competition Objectives:
Two main objectives are aimed. One is to create a new and ingenious
architectural design, appropriate to the project requirements in accordance
to the local regulations with the concept of sustainability and bio-climatic
design. In order to accomplish this, the climatic advantages and physical
conditions of the locality should be taken into consideration.
On the other hand, it is of vital importance to conceive the urban design, with the same conditions and criteria.

It is vital to clearly identify the stages proposed to carry out the progressive construction of each unit. From the technical perspective, it is
recommended to explore a type of urbanization taking into consideration: sustainability and rationality in the use of energy, recycling, reusing of water resources and final disposal of waste.

From the social standpoint, new forms of social interaction and community
coexistence should be proposed in order to strengthen the physical, mental,
and spiritual health of the inhabitants that could be use as a model for future developments elsewhere in the country.

The results of this project will be highly appreciated by the community of Guanajuato and in Mexico in general, due to the fact that it will contribute new concepts of architectural and urban design, and will allow the development of technical and scientific avant-garde experiences which could
also be used in future developments.

Competition program:
The objective is to create a different concept on architectural and urban
design, that can relate more immediately to the needs of society and the
local environment.
A Sustainable Housing Development is proposed under the following basis:
To suggest a housing design and its urban environment that allows an easier
interaction among inhabitants, offering independence between the suggested
housing developments and the urban design.
Each housing development must consist of 50 to 70 progressively built
houses (2 to 5 stages) with in a final construction area of 90 to 120 m2 per unit
and up to 3 levels high.
At least six different prototypes designs should be considered for multifamily progressive house construction. Open spaces and sustainable environments must be created to allow the social integration of the community.
The land is located in the Ex-hacienda de Santa Teresa in the surroundings
of the municipality of Guanajuato in direction to Silao City. The size of the land is 30 hectares. 60% should be considered to the construction of the houses and the remaining 40% to streets, avenues, facilities, public services, green areas and open spaces.

Organization:
This competition is sponsored and backed by the Government of the State of
Guanajuato under international norms approved by the UIA and the UNESCO.
The FCARM, National Member Section of the UIA, is the organization
responsible for the operation of the competition, from the execution of the prelimiary works, the creation of the bases, the launching of the
