Nox, you raise a very interesting point: the lack of newly built single-family residences among the award winners. Part of the reason was that there were no submissions of new, architect-designed single-family projects this year. Could it really be that there were no new single-family homes that had an impact on urban design and architecture? Hamilton has a strong tradition of building striking modern homes, as you can see in SLEEK 2, the new HIStory+HERitage exhibit on modern residential architecture from 1955-1975. It should be possible to continue this tradition, build architecturally interesting homes, and submit them to the next Urban Design Awards competition in 2013.
