Dwell Magazine and Inhabitat are co-producing the Reburbia competition, an invitation to envision an alternate design future for the American suburb:
Calling all future-forward architects, urban designers, renegade planners and imaginative engineers: Show us how you would re-invent the suburbs! What would a McMansion become if it weren't a single-family dwelling? How could a vacant big box store be retrofitted for agriculture? What sort of design solutions can you come up with to facilitate car-free mobility, 'burb-grown food, and local, renewable energy generation? We want to see how you’d design future-proof spaces and systems using the suburban structures of the present, from small-scale retrofits to large-scale restoration--the wilder the better!
Judges include: Jill Fehrenbacher, Sarah Rich, Fritz Haeg, Geoff Manaugh, Thomas Ermacora, Paul Petrunia, and Core77's Allan Chochinov.
The deadline is August 1st, so hurry up and enter!
