<p>The School of Architecture, FIU is announcing its first High School Student Design Competition. The purpose of this competition is to provide high school students an opportunity to put forward their ideas and to serve as a venue to showcase their ability to present excellent design. </p>
<p>The subject of the competition is a small architectural urban intervention in Miami Beach: a newsstand, located on Lincoln Road in front of the new parking garage (1111 Lincoln Road), designed by Herzog & de Meuron. The newsstand shall have a selection of local, national and international magazines addressing news, culture, art, and architecture. Students should consider how the design of the newsstand might be informed by the physical and cultural context of the site. We are looking for original designs that engage the public, have a clear articulation of the use of material, lighting and construction, and an understanding of magazine display. </p>
