U.S. Department of State Office of the Spokesman Press Statement

Media Note October 31, 2000 "U.S. Embassy for the New Millennium" Student Design Competition Winners With over 1,500 students participating from 125 schools of architecture across North America, the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture announced on August 3, 2000, the winning submissions in the 1999-2000 "U.S. Embassy for the New Millennium" student design competition, sponsored by the U.S. Department of State, Office of Foreign Buildings Operations (FBO). Recognized by President and Mrs. Clinton as a White House Millennium Partner Project, the competition asked students to examine the American embassy as a unique building type and propose design solutions for one of four sites around the world. Students were encouraged to combine an understanding of their democratic heritage with forward-thinking designs and building technology. The overwhelming interest of architecture faculty and students in the competition indicates that the public remains fascinated by American embassies abroad. "Our goal was to both raise and answer some questions about U.S. embassies," said Jeffrey Jay Osmond, FBO project manager. "Diplomacy is all about representing the U.S. in a variety of methods, and few are more important or visible than our building projects in other countries." The competition jury included: Cynthia Weese, Dean, School of Architecture, Washington University; Gary Haney, Principal, Skidmore, Owens and Merrill Architectural Firm, New York; and members of the FBO Architecture Advisory Board: Frances Halsband, Donlyn Lyndon, Jack Hartray, and Peter Rolland. Nancy Wilkie and Patrick Collins of FBO also served as jurors. Melissa Weese Goodill of the University of Maryland oversaw the evaluation of the Presentation Drawing submissions. Jane Loeffler, author of "The Architecture of Diplomacy," served as a historical advisor to the jury. Student winners and their schools will receive cash prizes totaling more than $10,000. A Grand Prize was selected from the seven finalists, which were each awarded Merit Citations. First, second, and third places, as well as honorable mentions, were awarded in the Presentation Drawing category.
