Design Exchange has partnered with Roxul to challenge Canadian Architecture and Interior Design students to recreate a living space within a home.

Design Brief

The challenge is to create a living space, using the provided plan of a typical unfinished basement. The space may be designed to contain any combination of a small washroom, laundry facilities, a home theatre system, a small home office area, and a convertible area to accommodate overnight guests.

Projects should utilize the Roxul products ComfortBatt and/or Safe’n’Sound, maximizing comfort and safety for the end user. Submitted projects should detail where, why, and how the Roxul products have been incorporated.

The submission should contain an overall sense of the renovation of the space, through floor plans, elevations, and details. A written description (of no more that 500 words) must accompany the submission, detailing how the project meets the design criteria and the development process.

We are looking for innovative design ideas surrounding renovation projects that can inspire consumers. Keeping in mind the Roxul slogan: ‘All projects start with ROXUL’, simply add innovation and creativity to come up with a winning design.
