Voting is Open for the AIA Barbie® Dream House™ Design Competition

Image Courtesy of MattelThis May, Mattel debuted Barbie® I Can Be™…Architect doll at the AIA national convention. As a way to further engage the design community in I Can Be™ Architect, the AIA launched a competition for architects to design their own interpretation of a Barbie® DreamHouse™.  A jury was selected and five finalists have been chosen for the public to vote on and determine the overall winner.  Click here to view the submissions and vote for your favorite.  The competition is open until August 1st, with the winner announced on August 2nd in conjunction with the retail launch of Barbie® I Can Be™... Architect doll.

 

This is a great opportunity for the public, and children in particular, to see the approach an architect takes to a design project.
