Montessori Meadows
by Michael D'Ambrosia — Alternate to Winner

Emphasizing the Montessori concept of the prepared environment, the work barn is strategically located off the agricultural quad. A hub for activity, the work barn functions as a pavilion. With the doors pulled back, a child’s independent spirit is ignited by the variety of activities found in the barn yard on one end and the rows of cultivation found on the other end in the agricultural quad.

Land Loom
by Katherine Harvey — Finalist

The architecture is conceived as an infrastructural loom weaving together human habitation, a landscape of cultivation, and surrounding ecosystems.  The loom works dually as a didactic device and an occupied milieu, revealing the functions of power generation, water distribution and land cultivation while enhancing diurnal and seasonal variations in light, water and vegetation.
