This year's competition, themed "Symbiosis • Regeneration," selected the Eden Eco-Education and International Living Demonstration Zone (Eden Zone) in Tianjin as the venue.  Focusing on the field of urban ecological renewal, it aims to showcase the concept of diversified coexistence and create distinctive and culturally rich town living scenes.

Marking its first adoption of a real-site approach, the competition actively promoted the integration of industry and education.  It attracted over 400 faculty members and students from 17 domestic and international universities, resulting in the submission of more than 60 entries.  The initiative effectively stimulated innovative dynamism, giving rise to a series of forward-thinking design outcomes.  These achievements not only facilitated the alignment of innovative solutions with industrial chains but also injected fresh momentum into regional renewal and development.
