THE COMPETITION:

ESP-sim is launching an international open ideas competition to assemble an on-line pattern-book of housing designs suitable for ‘self procurement’ in the UK. The ESP-sim project sets out to illustrate ‘enabled self procurement’ (ESP) for UK housing. Offering a fresh alternative to UK volume housing procurement, ESP is explained in detail on the project’s website at http://www.esp-sim.org. Pattern book housing is suggested to be a key feature of the ESP process.

It is the promoter’s intention to build the winning pattern book designs into the project’s innovative multi user 3d design software called ‘Youcanplan’. Winners of the design competition will therefore have their pattern book houses showcased through the software.
