120 HOURS is an architecture competition for students, by students. Its main objective is to increase the involvement and commitment among the students of architecture. The competition is held once a year and is open to students worldwide.
The competition was founded in 2011 by three students at the Oslo School of Architecture and Design (AHO); Peder E. Brand, Hans Martin F. Halleraker and Magnus A. Pettersen.
