 RIAS Andrew Doolan Best Building in Scotland 2009 ShortlistThe 2009 shortlist for the UK's richest architectural prize - The RIAS Andrew Doolan Best Building in Scotland Award - has been announced.From 28 submissions which ranged from Dumfries & Galloway to Rosshire the judges, chaired by Professor Andrew MacMillan, have shortlisted eleven projects. The shortlisted projects represent a comprehensive range of building types and include two restoration projects and buildings within both urban and landscape settings. "Shortlisting eleven out of this year's varied and excellent submissions was no easy task," commented David Dunbar, RIAS President. "Scotland is enjoying a creative renaissance and that is undoubtedly true of its architecture. This year's entries range throughout the length and breadth of Scotland and our shortlist reflects the high standards which are being achieved in every contemporary building type and in restoration. Selecting just one winner will challenge our judging panel, all of whom will be visiting all of the shortlisted schemes. I am confident that we will be making an award which respects the belief of the late Andy Doolan that Scotland's uniqueness is reflected in very special architecture. The superb quality of this year's submissions justifies the confidence of Scotland's Government which has also given generous support to this, the premier, Scottish architectural prize." more www.ria...

 Intersections: Grand Concourse Beyond 100By 2030, New York City is projected to grow by over a million residents, and an estimated 124,000 of these new New Yorkers - the equivalent of the entire population of Ann Arbor, Michigan, or New Haven, Connecticut - will settle in the Bronx.In honor of the centennial of the Grand Concourse, the borough's central artery, The Bronx Museum of the Arts and the Design Trust for Public Space, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to improving public space for all New Yorkers, sponsored an international ideas competition, Intersections: Grand Concourse Beyond 100. The competition challenged entrants to show how the Concourse could be redesigned to help meet the Bronx's need for housing, green space, and transportation. Over 400 participants from around the world submitted nearly 200 entries with bold visions for how the Bronx and the Grand Concourse should evolve in the next few decades. From these wide-ranging proposals, several common themes emerged that clearly resonated among participating designers. event ends Nov 30, 2009 United States view on map more design events more info cfa.aia...
