Chelsea Neighborhood Developers Facade Design Competition

Chelsea Neighborhood Developers Façade Redesign Competition
September 10th, 2009 Second Place Award


Chelsea Neighborhood Developers (CND) was soliciting entries for a Façade Redesign Competition, to develop a new face for a foreclosed triple-decker in Chelsea’s Shurtleff-Bellingham neighborhood.

The winning design will be implemented as part of a neighborhood revitalization strategy being developed by CND in partnership with the City of Chelsea and the Community Design Resource Center of Boston. CND envisions that the winning design could be a proto-type that expresses a distinctive mark that CND could use throughout the neighborhood as a part of its goal to set a community standard for design.

Swan Boats Pavilion and Duck House Design Competition 2008

Swan Boats Pavilion and Duck House Design Competition 2008  
Second Place Award November 25, 2008


The objective of this juried architectural design ideas competition was to explore the possibilities for two new built structures in the context of one of our country’s most significant public spaces, the Public Garden in Boston, Massachusetts. The beauty and grandeur of the Public Garden, our nation’s first botanical garden, is reflected in many of its built forms, as well as the 1859 landscape design by George Meacham.  Since there was no formal project or plan for a replacement pavilion and duck house, this was considered an ideas competition.
