Contestants can enter in two categories – green buildings and buildings that benefit society. Entries will be received from November 11 to November 30.

The Spec Go Green Awards were established in 2014, with this the first year non-Vietnamese architects are eligible.

Chairman of the Vietnam Association of Architects Nguyen Tan Van explained why this year’s contest is open to foreign contestants: “This year, Vietnam is the Chairman of the ASEAN Architect Council, which is an opportunity for the country to affirm its role in the region. In addition, the chairman role will help to promote the awards on an international scale.”

The twenty best works, including 10 created by students and 10 by young architects, will be awarded. The first prizes for students and architects will be 4,000 USD and 10,000 USD, respectively.
