The Chicago chapter of Architecture for Humanity is not so impressed with the design of the typical newsstand. Accordingly, they've organized a competition that calls for the reimagining of this important component of the urban landscape. Interested parties need to register by October 1, although submissions aren't due until November. Further details on the contest and the issues it hopes to engage are available online and by email at afhchicago(at)gmail.com.
