2021 Competition
Reimagining the Visitor Experience - The Ames Estate
2021 Jury To Be Held Virtually - The Board of Directors has opted to hold the 2021 Jury virtually. Therefore, all students will only be required to submit a digital (pdf) version of their entry. Physical booklets are not required. All other rules and eligibility requirements apply. Refer to the 2021 Program Brief for more information.
COVID-19 Considerations - Due to current travel restrictions related to the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Lyceum recognizes travel abroad may be delayed, reduced or unsafe. During this time of limited travel, we are offering winners the opportunity to present the Lyceum Board of Directors a proposal on how you might use the grant to advance the profession of architecture and enrich your educational experience in a way that is consistent with the Lyceum mission. Refer to the 2021 Program Brief for more information.

Participating in the competition and all the future work that has been an incredible experience that has further fueled my desire to improve my skill-set and design better spaces.

ExperiencesBy starting graduate school immediately after, I could see the reflection of my travels in my studio work. If it weren’t for this fellowship, I would not have been exposed to the concepts that drove my design experimentation. Once again, thank you so much for this unforgettable experience!
