Congratulations to David Mares and David Eltang for winning the People’s Prize and Juried Prize respectively.
I find it interesting that David Mares’ Cork Block Shelter won by such a landslide margin of 63.9% with 64,875 votes from a choice of 10 finalists. His closest competitor, Gonzalo Raymundo’s Bamboo Shelter, who had been in the lead early on only had 19.4% at 19,682 votes. But then again, it was an Internet based voting system… Perhaps next time I’ll name my entry The Stephen Colbert Shelter to have a fighting chance at winning..
