design a pylon competition
6 Answers
Saw this on 'BBC Breakfast' this morning it turns out only qualified people or current students of a architect/engineer/design course can apply.
Plus it's £15 for students and everyone else £50 just to do all the work for the bods down at the national grid.
I just read through all the fine detail of the competition and the spec of the pylons needed and it's not hard enough to make this a specialist subject.
The folk at the Royal institute of british architects should get their heads out their own a***'s, and understand if they want something the people will like you have to get them involved even at the design stage to shut everyone else out who has a good idea to make pylons more attractive, sustainable and safe is just unfair.
Should it just be for the folk with enough money to do these special courses, should they be the main influence as to what we have to put up with on our landscape, to just be involved briefly in which we prefer is not enough public input in my view.
If some guy wants to make a pylon look like a kebab I think he has the right to put forward his idea.
A lady on the tv this morning who started 'The Pylon Appreciation Society' who you would have thought knew alot about them was asked what she would like to see changed or what would work and she said painting them the same as the back ground like sky blue....is she having a laugh! Is that why us plebs aren't allowed in the 'plyon builders club' by the big boys because they think we're all like that?
Is anyone interested to apply, can they apply, would there be any one interested who couldn't apply?
Is anyone even interested?
