To celebrate its 30th anniversary, Antrax IT has launched THE HOT SPOT, an architecture competition inviting leading studios to design a 22 sqm tiny house seamlessly integrated into the landscape of the Valle delle Fate in the Venetian Prealps. The initiative explores the intersection of architecture, nature, sustainability, and minimal living, highlighting contemporary approaches to spatial efficiency, material use, and heating solutions.

The competition brings together Italian and European architects alongside ten specially invited studios, including AMDL CIRCLE, Atelier(s) Alfonso Femia, Dante O. Benini Architects, Lissoni & Partners, Parisotto + Formenton Architetti, Christophe Pillet, Matteo Thun & Partners, Victor Vasilev, and Marco Zito Studio. Competitors are tasked with designing the tiny house's envelope, interior, and heating systems using Antrax IT radiators and accessories, creating a model for innovative micro-architecture.
"The past thirty years have seen Antrax IT pioneer design research in heating," says Alberico Crosetta, CEO. "Now, we are taking the next step: not just creating products, but a destination for contemporary architecture, a micro-scale building that inspires, can be visited, and experienced."

The Hot Spot aims to enhance the surrounding landscape, framed by landmarks such as the Tempio Canoviano in Possagno and the Rocca di Asolo, offering designers the opportunity to blend history, natural context, and innovation. By focusing on compact, sustainable living spaces, the competition underscores the brand's commitment to functional, aesthetically refined, and environmentally conscious design.
