Announcing SHIFT: navigation, an interdisciplinary competition to design, prototype, and share navigational aids for the Capital Area Greenway.
CALL FOR PROPOSALS
Deadline: February 28, 2015
We seek navigational aids - devices, processes, artifacts - for Raleigh’s Capital Area Greenway. We view navigation as a utility that serves the public, an opportunity for visionary approaches to placemaking, and a venue for dialogue to transform how our community thinks about design. To participate, student designers from any discipline will propose solutions for one of two strategically pre-selected sites along the greenway. Winners will be chosen by a jury of local and global experts in greenway design, public art, and community engagement.
In addition to cash prizes for the top two navigational aids, SHIFT: navigation will work with the designers of the two winning entries to fabricate these solutions in whatever ways the design requires, and then share them with decision makers throughout our city. Finally, we will recognize the top eight submissions by installing their competition boards in strategic spaces throughout Raleigh, publicizing their designs in a digital manuscript and hosting it online, and featuring their work at a gallery show in downtown Raleigh
Please see the attached Design Brief and visit http://shiftncsu.wordpress.com/shift-navigation/ for more details. Please submit all questions to shift-navigation@ncsu.edu.

ABOUT SHIFT:
Created in 2011, SHIFT: is operated by the North Carolina State University SASLA chapter. Through SHIFT: we seek to engage students from around the world in topics that are both critical and underrepresented in our community. Past projects amassed scholarly articles on :infrastructure and :process, and published them in an ASLA award-winning journal.
In 2015, we are looking towards Raleigh’s future, while taking cues from SHIFT:’s past. SHIFT: navigation blends its predecessors celebrations of public networks and community engagement, transitioning them from the realm of journals and academia and crystallizing them into more tangible interventions in Raleigh’s built and digital landscapes.
