Envision the ecological transition through architecture, urbanism and landscape design.
Take part in the call for diploma projects and first works of the Braillard Architects Foundation!
For the sixth consecutive year, the Transition Seeds webinar series is back! The Braillard Architects Foundation launches its annual call for diploma projects and first works in architecture, landscape, and urban planning. Approaches, strategies and proposals should align with its cultural and research program The Eco-Century Project (ECP).
We invite young graduates and professionals eager to share their work with audiences in Switzerland and abroad.
Themes
Projects must be rooted in an ecological transition approach: decarbonisation and/or resilience of buildings, cities, and territories.
Visit our website for further details on these topics.
Conditions
- Only one project may be submitted, whether individual or collective.
- Diploma projects must have been officially approved by the affiliated institution.
- Submissions should mainly consist of drawings, models and digital renderings, and may include texts and calculations.

Webinars will be held online, in French or English, between January and May 2026.
