Why NextGen ?

NextGen Hettich Design Awards, a collaborative initiative between Hettich and Spaciux, aims to inspire architectural students to forge a sustainable future. Architecture colleges are nurturing future leaders, and students are already shaping tomorrow. Together, we strive for a better future.
The awards encourage students to conceive projects that prioritize sustainability, aiming for high energy efficiency, low carbon footprint, and creating comfortable environments. This fosters enhanced living, working, and recreational spaces accessible to all.
