On the occasion of the Guggenheim Museum’s 50th Anniversary, they are pleased to announce the two winning entries.

David Mares’s CBS – Cork Block Shelter, won the People’s Prize after receiving 64,875 votes out of more than 100,000 votes submitted online by voters around the world; and David Eltang’s SeaShelter, which was selected by a jury of architecture and design experts for the Juried Prize. Prizes include airfare and two nights accommodation for two in New York City, behind-the-scenes tours of the Guggenheim Museum and Google offices, and Google SketchUp Pro licenses.

      Your comments say more about you than the objects of your critiques. If you’re so desperate for your voice to be heard, then give REASONS, not one-liners, hit-and-run, childish responses.

A.E I AGREE!

MRF why are they so bad?
to me these are REAL designs that could work, not crazy, flashy, computer generated pieces of rubbish that will never leave the pc and become realised…

take a look at http://www.boidus.co.uk for some good quality design
