One more thing — if I didn’t make it clear, I’m interested in hearing from both those who like the winning entry and those who don’t. Gotta present both sides of the reaction.
I’m also interested in speaking with those of you who have mentioned issues regarding the practical issues raised by the winning design — the fire escapes, the likelihood of this design ever being built as shown, etc.
Thanks again.
Hello everyone —
I’m a non-architect who has been fascinated by this discussion, which I’ve been reading for the past week or two. My interest lies in the fact that I’m a U2 fan, and that I manage one of the most well-known unofficial U2 sites on the web: http://www.atu2.com. We have a staff of nearly two dozen fans around the world, and we produce a great deal of original content, including investigative news, features, reviews and opinion pieces, and satire/humor (at the band’s expense). We’re not a site that refuses to challenge or be critical of U2 when it’s deserved.
After reading this discussion, I believe there’s an interesting story to be written. I’m not interested in writing an article filled with sour grapes from entrants who did not make the shortlist, although that may certainly be a small part of the overall story. I am interested most in your reactions to the winning entry in specific, as well as the process the DDDA went through in general to choose that winner.
I’m willing to allow interviewees to not have your name used in return for candor.
If you’re willing to answer some questions for possible use in a story like I’ve described above, please use my subscriber profile to send me an email or a private message. I will respond as promptly as possible.
Thanks for your time.
Matt
