OpenHAUS and DARCH invites design professionals and design students to create an ‘Advertisement for Architecture’. The most outstanding of these entries will be exhibited at the award winning Surry Hills Library and Community Centre in Sydney, Australia for the Sydney Architecture Festival 2010, 20 October to 7 November 2010.

Entrants are invited to submit an A0 advertisement that reflects upon:

• The status of architects as cultural iconographers, determinants of the built environment, image-makers and visionaries.
• The changing role of the architectural profession over the 20th century and into the present millennium.
• The creation of desire for architecture.
• The promotion of a greater awareness of the role of the architectural profession both culturally and socially.
