We recently had the joy of partnering with our friends at Schoel to help judge the 2025 dreamARCHITECTURE competition, hosted annually by the Alabama Center for Architecture. This year’s prompt? Design your dream zoo. 🐘🦥
From floating habitats to animal roller coasters, the creativity on display was nothing short of inspiring. Each entry reflected not only a unique vision for animal care and conservation but also the incredible imagination and empathy of young designers. Whether it was a zoo that prioritized animal enrichment, sustainability, or guest experience, the thoughtfulness and enthusiasm behind these concepts reminded us why this is one of the highlights of our year.
dreamARCHITECTURE is an incredible program that encourages elementary students across Alabama to explore the world of architecture and design through hands-on creativity. We’re always honored to support initiatives that invest in the next generation of visionaries.
To all the students who participated—thank you for dreaming big. We’re already looking forward to next year.
