The
Chicago chapter of Architecture for Humanity is holding a contest to design street furniture: "Street furniture should not be limited to benches, we consider anything that makes a small space seem inviting, usable and safe to be street furniture. Including but not limited to: seating, planters, bicycle parking, sports or play equipment."
Grand prize is to see one or more of your creations built and distributed; you've got about a month to enter (PDF). Via Lynn Becker.
