Recounting stories from the Fairy Tales Architecture Competition — 2017 winners to be revealed February 6!

By Justine Testado|

Friday, Feb 3, 2017

Storytelling has the magical ability to influence our perception of the world we live in, and such observations couldn't be more valuable in the field of architecture. The Fairy Tales Architecture Competition captured the imaginations of architects everywhere when New York-based Blank Space first launched the 2014 edition. Every year, architects, designers, artists and the like are invited to write and illustrate their very own architectural narrative.

The competition brings up both evergreen topics and timely issues that constantly press on the minds of architects, but the submissions themselves vastly differ from year to year. What kinds of stories will the 2017 edition tell?

The big winners announcement will happen at Washington D.C.'s National Building Museum on February 6 — so be on the lookout for the winning entries right here on Bustler and Archinect on Monday night!

In the meantime, Bustler revisited some of the previous winning entries:
