Posted: Monday, May 31, 2010

The theme for this year’s Travelling Scholarship Award was Building in the Landscape.  Many of the schemes met the challenge of this theme head-on with well considered proposals for building in a sensitive rural location. 

This brief is the first of a three-part exploration of the competition:

  1. Rural 2010
  2. Suburban 2011
  3. Urban 2012

There were a total of 70 entries received for the Rural 2010 from three Schools of Architecture, Dublin Institute of Technology, University College Dublin and Waterford Institute of Technology.

The assessment of entries took place on the 19th April 2010.  The presentation of Winner’s Medal, Certificates for Highly Commended and opening of Exhibition took place on 18th May 2010 in the Ballymun Civic Centre, Ballymun Road, Dublin 11.  The Ballymun Civic Centre was an exciting venue and a great success.
