Buildner is excited to announce the results of the 6th edition of the Museum of Emotions international ideas competition.
This competition continues to challenge architects and designers to explore the spatial dimensions of emotion through a silent, two-gallery museum concept—one gallery evoking negative emotions, the other positive—without the use of text.
The jury for this edition brought together a diverse group of architects, artists, and academics from across the world: Bartosz Haduch is an architect, academic, and publicist based in Krakow, where he leads the interdisciplinary practice NArchitekTURA, known for its integration of architecture, urbanism, and landscape. Robert Hutchison is a Seattle-based architect, educator, and photographer whose studio work and teaching explore the intersection of architecture and art. Jiafeng Li is an architect whose global practice spans the U.S., Europe, and China, with a focus on environmentally and culturally responsive design. Jürgen Mayer H. is the founder of Berlin-based J.MAYER.H und Partner, known for experimental architecture at the intersection of technology, form, and public space. Françoise N’Thépé leads a Paris-based practice engaged in architecture and design with a strong international profile. Nuno Pimenta is a Porto-based architect whose work spans installation, temporary structures, and performative public space. Charles Tashima directs Studio Tashima in London, emphasizing adaptive reuse and lived architecture rooted in vernacular and material exploration. Stephanie Deumer is a Los Angeles-based Canadian artist working in multimedia installation, with a focus on reproduction systems and immersive environments. Andreas Profanter is a partner at noa* network of architecture in Bolzano, bringing experience from Austria, Italy, and France to projects that merge narrative, form, and context.
Buildner and its jurors extend their sincere thanks to all participants for their thoughtful and compelling submissions, and congratulate the selected winners for their exceptional work. The 7th edition of the competition is currently open for submissions. Visit the link here to register today.
To see how this ongoing series has evolved, we also invite readers to explore Architectural Emotions Vol. 1, a print publication featuring selected works from previous editions: architecturecompetitions.com/architecture-books/architectural-emotions-1/

Museum of Emotions / Edition #6
Organizers
Buildner Architecture Competitions
About the Competition
It may not be your first instinct when entering a building to consider how it makes you feel, but architecture has always had a big impact on emotions. Different spaces are designed to make their inhabitants feel different things; offices can make you feel energised and productive, art galleries can make you feel thoughtful and curious, and museums can make you feel calm and intrigued. Each of these spaces is completely different from each other and is far more than just a building.
As part of a series of annual architecture competitions, the Museum of Emotions competition is tasking participants with using architecture as a tool to bring out different emotions. They are asked to design a museum that includes two separate exhibition halls that bring out contrasting emotions – one inducing negative emotions, and the other inducing positive emotions.
Participants are free to choose the specific emotions they incite with their designs – fear, anger, anxiety, love, happiness, laughter, etc. The purpose of the Museum of Emotions is to use architecture as the primary tool to create emotional states, through consideration of the scales of the spaces, the journey through the space, colour, lighting, and material choice.
As this is an ideas competition, participants are free to choose any site location, real or imaginary, as well as the size of their structure.
Museum of Emotions / Edition #6 is one of Buildners' silent competitions, in which participants must communicate their ideas without the use of any text. The design concept and thinking behind it must all be communicated solely through the use of visuals.
