the council on tall buildings and urban habitat [ctbuh] is pleased to announce its 2nd annual international student tall building design competition to be held in conjunction with the ctbuh 9th world congress shanghai 2012.
the goal of the competition is to shed new light on the meaning and value of tall buildings in modern society. as noted by the 2011 competition jury chair, william pedersen of kohn pedersen fox, “there has been a major transition in the sense of the value of the tall building and what it can contribute to the urban realm, and society in general. this transition moves the tall building away from just an instrument of financial exploitation and toward a development highly concerned with its impact on the city, the environment, and the urban habitat.”
