We ask you to convince us of building our future home on top of a hill with an incredible view of the picturesque Mosel River and its stunning vineyards. We are calling for submissions from international architects for an invitation-only design competition to build our future home in Wincheringen, Germany. It is our intention to build the winning design proposal.

As much as possible this will be a paperless, web-based competition; all entries must be electronic. All the important information and documents related to this competition will be posted on jeedeecee.com under the category “AUF MONT_43”.

The jury will come together to view submissions electronically.
