Alohana is a company based in Portugal.
We specialize in zero-waste, future-driven, nature based materials for the construction and design industry.
Currently at 80% we believe in a future of construction made 100% from agricultural waste (plant fibres and soil).
This competition is for our next project.
We choose the top 3 designs in 5 categories (white/coloured 1-storey buildings, white/coloured 2-storey building, brick 1-storey buildings, brick 2-storey buildings, plyscraper complexes).
Key elements for all designs are: energy-efficiency, use-efficiency, combat Sick Building Syndrome, comfort, and sustainable modular design.
All designs are welcome since one of the objectives is to show how homes and neighbourhoods with our materials do not differ from traditional buildings in design. Only in comfort, health, and wellbeing. Designs inspired by Portuguese building styles are prefered.
Of course feel free to check our website and the websites of our suppliers for additional inspiration.
The winning designs will be build throughout Portugal and Spain.
The winning designers are invited to learn how their designs can be build with our materials during a course and consultancy program (normally priced at €5.000,-)
