NEW ENGLAND BIOLABS DESIGN COMPETITION New England Biolabs |

Type: Open Registration Deadline: April 11, 2001 Submission Deadline: April 11, 2001 Open to: All Entry Fee: None Awards: US $220,000 Total Jury: Donlyn Lyndon and Jane Weinzapfel OWNERS STATEMENT: "In this Open First Stage, we are searching for five outstanding design concepts for a modern Molecular Biology Laboratory that softly melds into the Victorian architecture of the existing estate buildings. The design must be pragmatic and functional but not necessarily a reproduction of existing architecture. The challenge is to gracefully integrate a new laboratory between the two historic buildings and at the same time, create a structure that will "stand on it's own" as a monument to the emerging field of molecular biology. This is a formidable challenge and we want to give architects the freedom to explore a wide range of concepts for integrating the old with the new. We look for First Stage submissions to emphasize design concept, general form and choice of materials. Details of the interior arrangement and other technical considerations will be reserve for Stage Two. Stage One designs must accommodate underground parking for 180-190 cars, a 400 seat lecture room and a southern-exposed winter garden for tropical vegetation. It is extremely important that the old copper beech tree, just east of the main house, be preserved. In addition, the proposed designs that clearly exceed the cost limit will, of necessity, be excluded before jury selections. Please review the attached documentation for competition requirements. We look forward to seeing your designs in April." For more information or to register, contact: Douglas Trees D.F.T.A.
