Echigo-Tsumari Australia house competition
Competition entry Australia / 2011
3
The Australia House Reconstruction Project was launched soon after the collapse of the original Australia House in a powerful aftershock on 12 March 2011. It is the result of many people's determination to continue the close relationship between Australia and the Echigo-Tsumari region.
A scenic site in Urada, Tokamachi City, Niigata prefecture, was chosen as the site for the new Australia House. Based on the concept of 'reasonable, robust and small' hazard-resistant construction, an international competition for the building's design was launched in September 2011.
