Poems of a Modern Day Architect

We’ve all been there. Tight deadlines, frustrating clients, too much coffee and too many all-nighters. But we’re still here. We keep creating despite the struggles.

For each one of us this journey is unique, but at the same time we share a common struggle - the urge to create.

So express it. With a poem. Bee Breeders in partnership with ARCHHIVE BOOKS is asking you to submit a poem about what architecture is and what it means to be an architect in the modern world.

Selected winners will receive monetary awards and will be included in the ARCHHIVE BOOKS “Poems of a Modern Day Architect” print publication. Quotes from selected winners will also appear in the Bee Breeders short film to be launched in Spring 2020.

PRIZES:

3 winning proposals and 15 honourable mentions will be selected. Bee Breeders will award a total of US $1,000 in prize money to competition winners as follows:

1st Prize - US $600
2nd Prize - US $300

+ 15 honourable mentions

Selected winners will receive monetary awards and will be included in the ARCHHIVE BOOKS “Poems of a Modern Day Architect” print publication. Quotes from selected winners will also appear in the Bee Breeders short film to be launched in Spring 2020.
