The One with the Base Camp

Chandler recently entered an architecture competition to design a base camp on Mt. Everest. The camp was to act as a "hostel for climbers preparing ascent, a mountain clinic/emergency hospital, education centre for managing/protecting the environment, and a waste management centre (disposables resulting from expeditions)." You could only submit one image of your design.

Chandler's design was picked out of 100's of submissions to be in the top 42! From there, they will select 15 and then 4 finalist. The finalist win some pretty cool prizes, like a loaded Sony Vaio laptop. I'm so proud of him, (1) for actually entering a competition instead of just talking about it and (b) for being in the running to win of course!

Here's a link, his design is the second row from the bottom: http://www.lineofsite.info/gallery.html
