The Visual Communication and Interior Architecture faculties take an active part in this project. In order to win, students from universities around the globe have to design and build the best life-size scale, fully operational, solar-powered pavilion.

The Swiss team selected for the 2017 edition, is made up of participants from the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), the School of Engineering and Architecture of Fribourg (HEIA-FR), Geneva University of Art and Design (HEAD – Genève) and the University of Fribourg (UNIFR). In the fall of 2017, the team will take its prototype to Denver, Colorado, where they will exhibit the design to professional juries and the general public.

The competition will occur from September 23th until October 20th and will be open to the public from October 5th to 15th 2017.
