Architects and architecture students,
The AIA Small Project Practitioners invites you to submit design ideas to the 2014 SPP Small Project Design Competition. In this unique design competition, submitters are asked to re-imagine the standard farmer's market canopy pop-up booth.
Submissions are due no later
5:00PM ET on Friday, March 21, 2014. The
non-refundable entry fee is
$75.00 per submission.
Farmers markets across the United States are popping up as fast as pop-up tents. Most of these markets feature delectable produce sold by friendly vendors under a hodgepodge of well-worn tents.
These markets occur all over, often in dense areas with little to no green space, where a neighborhood street is blocked off for an evening or a day, allowing local farmers to set up their wares under the cover of a bland, nondescript white vinyl pop up canopy.
Visit the
SPP Pop Up Project webpage to learn more and how to submit your project. Please direct any questions you may have to
spp@aia.org.
