Competition 2001
* Submission
Deadline 10 April, 2001
"Representation" has a bad reputation nowadays. But let's take another look at this word, by thinking about it as "re/presentation." "Re" refers to something that has "already been" and "presentation" means to "set forth" something. Thus, "representation" means "to set forth that which has already been"

Biolabs Design Competition
* Submission
Deadline 11 April, 2001
In this open First Stage, We are searching for five outstanding design concepts for a modern Molecular Biology Laboratory that softly melds into the Victorian architecture of the existing estate buildings. The design must be pragmatic and functional but not necessarily a reproduction of existing architecture.The challenge is to gracefully integrate a new laboratory between the two historuc buildings and at the same time, create a structure that will "stand on it's own" as a monument to the emerging field of molecilar biology.
