so nothing on the proposals themselves?
fantastic list! nice to see some WashU faculty representing.
Team 1:
Behnisch LA principal Christof Jantzen is a recent WashU acquisition,
Peter MacKeith is associate dean of the school and an arch faculty member, and Eric Mumford is head of the history/theory faculty...
go St. Louis!
also, nam, the first stage was not based on design proposals, but on portfolio of past work.
SOM + BIG?
Not a pairing I would have expected.
Looking forward to the proposals....
team 1 is stacked, though i wish this had been an actual blind competition instead of a pissing contest...
thanks AP.
Bravo Jury! This is probably one of the best ideas of the last 2 years. First time presented for the « CITY TOWER » in South Korean contest, than last time for the ThyssenKrupp 2009 contest in Dubai and finally in this prestigious competition.
We some nice mega sculptures in Brussels done by a famous Belgian artist many years ago.
…Nice, very nice. And who is this famous Plagiarist ?
I would like to add that i twill be very difficult to obtain pure rand better form than this founded in 1947. I hope in this challenge the best idea will win again!
