Publisher's Synopsis
Competitions, juries, and studio projects refereed by design peers have long been considered 'sacred turf' that cannot be questioned as well as potentially frightening experiences for those involved in submissions. This book explores the rationales of the jurors, how students can improve skills, how judges can be more effective, and whether the jury process should be changed. Guidelines are based on existing literature as well as extensive surveys, interviews, observations, and diaries of over 900 participants.;This book should be of interest to students and professionals in architecture, landscape architecture, planning, interior, industrial and graphic design.
