This year's design competition to dentify a local site and propose a creative intervention under 100m² that improves people, place or environment. Open to RIBA/RSAW members (Student included).

Whether it is an underused corner of a neighbourhood, a forgotten green space, a vacant plot, a neglected streetscape or an overlooked community asset, we want to see proposals that demonstrate how design can improve everyday life and create lasting positive impact.
