“We are glad that when asked to think differently about architecture, so many people were up for the challenge,” the founders say. “Blank Space started exactly for this purpose: to uncover better means to communicate architecture, and in turn, to change the way the world perceives architecture. The response is a testament to the power of these ideas.”
HONORABLE MENTIONS. Chapter 1:
• Exordium by Posin Wang.
• Untitled by Irena Gajic, Tea Belicev, and Marta Gajic.
The winning entries, along with the honorable mentions and other notable submissions, will be featured in Fairy Tales: When Architecture Tells a Story, Blank Space’s first publication.
