From here to Modernity




Last century, many architects believed that advances in technology could be harnessed to produce a better quality of life for all.

This is the story of the Modern Movement: the story of the men and women who wanted to create a new architecture. For better or worse, these Modernists have changed the British landscape forever. This is how they did it.

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS: ARTCITY FESTIVAL

The Visual Arts Week Society is seeking architecture-related proposals for the 18th incarnation of Artcity Festival. We are seeking proposals for temporary architectural installations that address a township or multiple structure theme, the nomadic nature of Artcity festival, the utopian nature of outdoor rock music festivals, and/or the need for a space/structure where the public can congregate en masse, enjoy, and be challenged. http://www.artcityfestival.com

COMPETITION COMPETITION 2010

Image
DEADLINE: February 15, 2010 (Submission) Architizer.com announces an entirely new kind of architectural award that chooses its winner from the losing competition entries of 2009. Every year architects submit thousands of projects to competitions without receiving recognition or compensation for their work; this award is a do-over. Entries are easily uploaded to Architizer for consideration and there is no fee for submission. Entrants are only required to include three images, a text description, and credit for the entire team. Competition Competition 2010 is open to everyone who did not win a first prize. Submissions will be evaluated solely on their architectural merit, not on the criteria of the original competition for which they were created.
