The Competition Conundrum: Why competitions are good for you
b"
With the end of a grueling term of architecture, the spring/summer term would normally be seen as a moment of reprieve, recovery, and relaxation. But that's not how architecture students work - they're masochists like that. Why not relive the experience on your personal time with a competition or two? Want to relive the fun of collaborating with team members on a design project? Do a competition with a partner.
\\nIn this episode we are joined by Tatiana Estrina, currently a DAS Co-op student, who has been competing in (and winning) architecture competitions from design-builds to international conceptual proposals. Here are some competitions referenced in this episode:
