Canadian real estate company VIDA partners with Trailer Park Boys on international landscape and design contest
Canadian multifamily real estate company VIDA has launched an international landscape and design contest, supported creatively by the Canadian comedy franchise Trailer Park Boys.
VIDA owns 6.6 acres of prime land ready for development, located in the town of Kentville, Nova Scotia, and is developing coastal modular homes that will aim to revolutionize affordable living.
As a result, the contest involves designing the landscape of a new 6.6-acre affordable home community in Kentville, Nova Scotia, and will offer a grand prize of $25,000 CAD.
Innovative landscape design concepts are being encouraged from students, landscape designers, architects, and other interested parties. The winning design will “encompass an inspiring exterior layout that naturally reflects the sense of belonging of this pristine Coastal Modular community.”
VIDA is looking for creative ways to position the homes on the site and minimizing infrastructure investments (fill, road, plumbing services, etc.), while also maximizing the number of units and the beauty and quality of life within the space.
Participants are encouraged to use their best creative senses to deliver features rarely seen in a modular home community.
“Amenities should offer a positive impact on physical/mental health and overall connectivity to make a community thrive. This may include details like a floral walking path, community garden, picnic area, playground, pickleball court, fire pit, event space, gazebo and so much more! The world is your oyster when creating VIDA’s Coastal Modular Community,” reads VIDA’s website.

The contest will be accepting submissions until April 26, 2024.
The winning design will be chosen and announced on May 3, 2024.
