Billboard Building Wins Architecture Award

Published by Joseph Ferrara November 25th, 2007 in Architecture.

Brendan O’Grady’s design for an urban living space (subsidized urban living module) won Best in Category (Professional digital/hybrid) for 2007 in the prestigious Ken Roberts Memorial Delineation Competition for architectural drawings. Mr. O’Grady is with Nocturnal Design Lab of Dallas, Texas. The KRob Competition is the longest running architectural delineation contest in the world (history of the event here).

Can you imagine living in a billboard building? The traffic noise? Pollution? And your paperboy better have a good arm.

This type of urban architecture is similar to front architect’s Single Hauz (pictured below)

Those sure are unique billboards. I can not imagine living in that crazy looking “billboard home”. You hit the nail on the head with living in that environment.
