The 2010 EDP-Jax Sustainable Shed Competition has been added to the list at Bustler.net. 

| shed | Competition

EDP-Jax is proud to announce it's yearly design competition, the Sustainable |shed|.  This year's competition is open to all EDP members, AAIA members, interns and Architects in their first ten years of practice within the state of Florida.
In today's economy, many are finding it necessary to work from home or start a home based business but may lack the space and/or privacy necessary to have a home office.  The |shed| is a perfect solution to live/work entrepreneurs in a down economy.
The |shed| is to be designed as a completely sustainable office shed on a typical residential lot, we're seeking to show people what is possible with today's technology in the area of Sustainable and Modern design.  We aim to show that High Design and Sustainable design can be affordable and fit within any existing urban fabric to provide reasonable and beautiful solutions for today's burgeoning entrepreneurs.
For competition rules and to register for the Sustainable |shed| Competition, please go to the AIA Jacksonville website, under the "Calendar of Events" page.

Freestanding Kitchens

Just got an email from Designer Pages about freestanding kitchen components.  Pretty cool stuff.  Check it out.

Congrats Freida!

Congratulations to Freida Speicher, at R. Dean Scott Architect, on attaining licensure in the state of Florida!

[POD] Competition/Exhibit

First let me thank everyone who came out last night in support of EDP-Jax and our first competition of the year, the [pod] competition.  It was a great event in a new downtown space, LIT (thanks to Nick Renard for getting us in touch with Dustin over there at 11 Ocean Street).  Congratulations to all the entrants in the competition.  The work shown was very creative and exciting.  Special congratulations to our top 3:

First Place - Jeremiah Russell
Second Place - Freida Speicher
Third Place - Tyler Curl

Jeremiah's entry will be constructed and used at our future events, including the Design Awards Gala coming up in May during Architecture Week.  The top 3 entries are below and congratulations again to all those who participated in the competition and a big thank you to all who came out in support of EDP-Jax!
