Shelter Competition: Vote now!

The submission period for the Design It Shelter Competition is over; now it's time to exercise your right to an anonymous online opinion by voting for your favorite shelter. Ah, sweet democracy...

Check out the People's Prize page on the Guggenheim competition website to register your vote. The 10 designs from which you'll choose (of the nearly 600 that were accepted) were selected by students from the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture. They are (in no particular order):

By Jonathan Dowse
From: Chapel Hill, United States | Shelter location: United States

By Rodrigo Montoya
From: Bogota, Colombia | Shelter location: Colombia

By Chris Chin
From: Kirkland, United States | Shelter location: United States

By Gonzalo Raymundo
From: Quezon City, Philippines | Shelter location: Philippines


By Natalia Schenfeld

Voting ends October 10th. The winners of both the People's Prize and the Juried Prize will be announced on October 21st, at the Guggenheim Museum's 50th Anniversary Celebration in New York, and on the Guggenheim's web site.
