2022 Lyceum Fellowship - Underland

Registration Deadline: May 26, 2022; Submission Deadline: May 26, 2022 2022 Competition Overview Underland - Project for The Friesenhahn Cave Site   The project is sited on the Friesenhahn Cave site outside of San Antonio which is owned and managed by Concordia University in Austin, Texas. The cave is one of the most important paleontological sites in the United States. Homotherium serum or Scimitar Tooth Cats lived in the cave more than 15,000 years ago and used it as their den. The cave's original formation, with its descending entry ramp leading deep into the earth, made an ideal home for the Ice Age cats. This 20,000-year-old single-room den is located on an approximately four-acre site, situated in the midst of the suburban sprawl of San Antonio. The impressive feline remains originally found in the cave are in the Texas Memorial Museum on the University of Texas Campus. The 2022 competition is open to architecture students currently enrolled in NAAB accredited programs in North America. Complete competition program and eligibility requirements can be found on the Lyceum Fellowship website. Read the full post on Bustler
