If you haven't already registered for the Dear Architecture competition, do it now! The Regular Registration period ($40) ends tomorrow, June 24. Afterward, the registration fee will go up to $50 until the final deadline on July 24.
Presented by Blank Space — the creators of the successful Fairy Tales Architecture Competition — along with Bustler, our sister site Archinect, and ArchDaily, Dear Architecture invites participants around the globe to write their own 500-word letter to architecture — whether as a concept, a social practice, or as a community — along with an illustration to supplement their letter's message.
More info below.
The distinguished jury includes FR-EE founder Fernando Romero, Atelier Manferdini principal Elena Manferdini, Pentagram partner Natasha Jen, and Archinect and Bustler's Editorial & Production Manager Alexander Walter!
"Through the solemnity and poignancy that letter-writing encourage us to confer to our own ideas, we hope to instigate passionate reflections on architecture's place in society, and start an open dialogue on its responsibility and mission. Let's take this opportunity to make demands of architecture, to keep it on its toes, to express wishes as to what its future should look like and what its concerns should be, to declare our love for it, our hate for it, our neutrality towards it. Let's use our words to congratulate architecture on its accomplishments, or criticize it for what it has become. Let's make our own commitments to it, and hold ourselves accountable to them in a public, written form."
Remember: The final deadline to register + submit your entry is July 24.
