応募資格 This competition is open to Architects, Partnerships, interns and students in Architecture & Design around the world. Students who qualify as one of the six finalists, in Stage 1, must team with a licensed architect to be eligible for Stage 2.

Description
The design should be either, Mediterranean, Contemporary, Caribbean or a fusion of all three, while being mindful of a sub-tropic region with tropical summers. (Hot and humid from June through October, with searing sun and torrential rains, and balmy from November – May with occasional cool evenings). The architectural ‘guideline’ for the home design should be one that stimulates and delights with its unique ideas, exotic details and classic emphasis, and harmonizes indoor and outdoor living spaces.
