Submission #339 | Jack Blythe and Marc Francl: Housing for the Arts — “Housing for the Arts focuses on sharing the housing project and the site as a whole with the community through the integration of interconnected arts programs. These programs are composed of live/work residential units for local artists, exhibition spaces, classrooms, and mural walls created by artists and community members alike.”
Submission #281 | Marco Nieto: Ashes to Ashes — “My proposal seeks to create a permanent and spiritual fixture in the fabric of the ever-changing and ethereal festival that is Burning Man, reinventing its identity. This will be done by integrating the process and materiality of ash, utilizing its sustainable potential and intimate meaning to those who participate to create a new program that melds industry and institution, creating a familiar yet foreign sight in the middle of the desert.”
Submission #162 | Connor Gravelle — "Our cultural moment might be described as one of intense self-reflection, foregrounding questions of identity and what it means to belong in any particular context.

Public, once a solid, is now liquid and relational. Considering collective identity as relational attaches its production to the friction of bodies."

Plymouth is a city that has found itself lost in it's direction and disconnected from it's identity. The identity of Plymouth lies with the ocean, but the city does not make use of the oceans full potential."
Submission #103 | Heffrence Teow: The ReiFieR — “The intention of The ReiFieR is to invert the envelop and the content, putting the ideas out as the façade contributing to an extrovert architecture. To do this, a study of how various arts are best display is important.“
