EV charging station concept wins the American Institute of Steel Construction's 2023 Forge Prize

A new concept for an EV charging station has won the American Institute of Steel Construction’s 2023 Forge Prize at a special live-streamed event held Thursday, March 30th, in Chicago. First created in 2018, the $10,000 prize “celebrates emerging architects who create visionary designs that embrace steel as the primary structural component while exploring ways to increase project speed.” This year’s winners Christopher Taurasi, Lexi White, and Jeffrey Lee of LVL (Level) Studio successfully presented a concept called Electric Oasis that inserts “treelike” steel canopies into gas stations while simultaneously enacting a bio-remediative aeration system that helps to mitigate the ground soil contamination that ordinarily renders such sites unusable for generations.Read the full post on Bustler
