The Steel Structures Education Foundation (SSEF) held it's annual Design Competition and Waterloo Architecture students dominated! This year's theme was 'recycle - recycler' :
Students are not restricted to designs that explore the meaning of recycle as it may be expressed within the concept of reuse, reduce recycle; rather, they are invited to engage in the exploration of recycle as an architectural and structural concept. While they may range from utilitarian to exquisite in their execution, all responses must come to terms with one simple problem: the clear incorporation of recycle in a design that utilizes steel as the primary element for structural form.
The award recipients are:
Cable Cruise by Justin Ng and Tristan Sito - Award of Excellence
Steel Garden by Jane Hung, Winona Li and Sean Quach - Award of Merit
The Outlook by Christy Cheng and Shaina Coulter - Award of Merit
Overall, six Waterloo Architecture projects, sponsored by Faculty members Terri Meyer Boake & Matthew Spremulli, were in the Top Ten projects.
Congratulations everyone!
