The SHIFT Architecture Challenge is an aspirational, biennial program created to highlight the distinct contribution that architectural thinking brings to addressing key societal issues. This year’s challenge, The Streets, invites those in the profession to envision Ontario streets that are versatile, sustainable, safe, welcoming, and enjoyable places for everyone, including the most vulnerable members of our communities.

As a thought leader in street design, Brent will evaluate submissions against five key criteria: innovation, social responsibility, inspiration, inclusivity, and holistic approach.

The call for entries is currently open and can be accessed through the online submission form until Monday, January 18, 2027 at 11:59 PM Eastern. Learn more:  www.shiftchallenge.ca
