Paul and James from FXFOWLE battled David and Sean from Konyk last night at LVHRD's fourth annual architecture duel ARCH DL IV held in the Music Hall of Williamsburg. The brief transported us to the year 2029 with a challenge to design a wildlife research park set in the Alaskan wilderness, and a specific request to repurpose the recently disused oil pipes of a utopian future (these were represented by drinking straws in the model). A curtain divided the two teams who were given 30 minutes of sketching time and 90 minutes to construct a model in front of a live audience. Konyk's tower was clear crowd favorite winning with 449 votes to 267, but for those who didn't make it (or did) you can vote online tomorrow at lvhrd.org. And if anyone has suggestions for a good ID theme, let us know.
