Yarışmalar-Competitions

Yarışma Özeti(Summary):
The School of Art and Design of San Jose State University is sponsoring an open two-stage competition to select a winning design and architectural team for its new Museum of Art and Design. The new Museum, which will be built on the University campus near downtown San Jose, will seek to inspire members of the campus and greater Silicon Valley communities to explore the past, present, and future influences of art and design on our lives. It is estimated to have a total project cost of approximately $12 million and will include approximately 35,000 SF of new construction

San Jose is the most populous city in northern California, as well as the population and psychological center of Silicon Valley. San Jose State University, founded in 1857, is the oldest public university in California, and is part of the state's 23-campus state university system, which is the largest in the U.S. The School of Art and Design serves as the primary public educational institution in the Valley that focuses on these disciplines. The School reflects the entrepreneurial and innovative nature of the region through development of new programs, innovative collaborations with the private sector, and leadership in the application of computers to art, design, and art history. The new museum will support a diverse gallery program, one of the largest in the country, and will serve as a cultural and educational focal point for the University and the community.

San Jose is the most populous city in northern California, as well as the population and psychological center of Silicon Valley. San Jose State University, founded in 1857, is the oldest public university in California, and is part of the state's 23-campus state university system, which is the largest in the U.S. The School of Art and Design serves as the primary public educational institution in the Valley that focuses on these disciplines.

The new museum will support a diverse gallery program, one of the largest in the country, and will serve as a cultural and educational focal point for the University and the community.

This competition will be conducted in two stages. The first stage will be open to all architects, museum designers, and other design professionals who are licensed to provide the requisite professional services in the State of California. Association of out-of-state architects with California-licensed architects (preferably those familiar with Silicon Valley's environment) is permitted. All first stage submissions will be anonymous. A Competition Jury comprised of design professionals will select the five most promising submissions to become Finalists for the second stage of this competition. Each Finalist team will receive an honorarium of $15,000 toward their Second Stage competition costs, to include preparing a study model of their design.

Each Finalist team will be asked to make an oral presentation of their design to a body consisting of the Jury and University, College, and School faculty, staff, and interested community members prior to the Jury's recommendation of a winning design. The Museum Advisory Committee will review the Jury's decision on the winning design, and will recommend the selection of a winning design to the University President. The competition winner selected by the Committee, and approved by the President, will have the opportunity to negotiate a contract for the requisite professional services to implement their winning design with the Museum. The selected architectural team must receive pre-qualification from the California State University system prior to performing any services. Bill Liskamm, Competition Advisor, FAIA will serve as the Competition Advisor.

The competition schedule indicates that registration is now open. A registration fee of $50 is required of each competitor. The Competition Kit will be posted on the University's website (School of Art and Design page) in mid-October, and a briefing and site visit are scheduled for early November. First stage submissions are due late in mid January 2003, and second stage submissions and Jury presentations are scheduled for early April 2003.

This competition will be conducted in two stages according to the schedule described on the following pages. The two stages of the competition will be conducted as follows:
First Stage: This "idea" or "concept" phase is to convey the entrant's architectural and urban design concepts for the new museum, and is to be limited to two 30" x 40" drawings. This material will be sent to the Sponsor for evaluation by the Jury. Five finalists will be selected by the Jury to proceed to the Second Stage of this competition. In addition to the five finalists, the Jury may award Certificats of Honorable Mention for outstanding designs. All First Stage entries will be anonymous and will be on public exhibit prior to the Jury review.

Second Stage: Five finalists will be recommended by the Jury for the Second Stage of this competition based on their First Stage designs for the new museum. Each finalist (or team) will receive a $15,000 honorarium toward his/her participation and travel expenses in the Second Stage. Prior to beginning the Second Stage, representatives of each finalist team will participate in (1) a site visit and briefing by University and School staff and Technical Advisors, and (2) a
discussion of the Jury's First Stage comments. If, in the Sponsor's opinion, a Finalist team does not have the necessary qualifications to provide the requisite architectural services to implement its design, the team will be asked to augment its qualifications by associating with other firms of its choice until the Sponsor is satisfied. A monochromatic study model of each scheme will be required, under common guidelines to ensure fairness, in the Second Stage.

Each finalist will make an oral presentation to the Jury, University and School staff, and the public during the Second Stage Jury review. The Jury will recommend a winner, who in their opinion best meets the Competition Objectives, to the Museum Advisory Committee. The Committee will review the Jury's decision on the winning design, and will recommend the selection of a winning design to the University President. The competition winner selected by the Committee, and approved by the President, will have the opportunity to negotiate a contract for the requisite professional services to implement their winning design with the University. The selected architectural team 7 must receive pre-qualification from the California State University system prior to performing any services.

All design submittals in both stages will be open to public viewing prior to the First and Second Stage Jury reviews. A cost consultant, hired by the Sponsor, will review all First and Second Stage submissions for their compliance to the project budget.
