Foundation (USA), a charity established to enable America to
support the natural history and heritage of London's Royal Parks.

on ornamental and drinking fountains in the capital's eight Royal
Parks and will see the creation of a stunning new fountain in
St James's Park, restoration of the Italian Gardens in Kensington
Gardens, as well as improvements to drinking fountains to benefit
the Royal Parks' 37 million visitors each year. The competition
challenge will be to create a well-designed drinking fountain

USA: A House for Anton Chekov
- The deadline of this competition
is July 15th, 2010.
- We could call this house The
House of Subtext. Strangely, this is supposed to be a house for
a man whose pseudonym at one time, in translation, meant: Man
without a Spleen. But was he really a "man without a spleen...?"
We ask you, then, to design a "house of mood, " a house
whose life is "submerged in the text," as his own work
is. A house that refuses the heroics, or, to be more exact, the
explicit, self-advertising forms of heroism, since there is with
certainty a form of heroism in a doctor, like Chekhov, who treated
the poor without charging them and who built public buildings
for them, with his own money... and who refused to complain,
despite the fact that he was seriously ill, of an illness that
actually shortened his life significantly.

potential of analyzing, documenting, and deploying nature-based
influences in architecture, interiors, and designed objects.

thought and performance through the study of intrinsic environmental
geometries, behaviors, and flows. By identifying, examining,
and applying their structural order on form and function- -bottom-up,
performance-based solutions for limitless building typologies,
functional programs, and material conditions may be realized. The
competition allows designers freedom to approach their creative
process in a scale-appropriate manner- -from large-scale master
planning endeavors, to individual building concepts, to notions
of interior detail. Accordingly, there are no restrictions
on site, scale, program, or building typology.
