Prison Design Boycott Campaign

Sponsored by the ADPSR (Architects/Designers/Planners for Social Responsibility), this competition imagines a poster that speaks to architects, specifically telling them that accepting prison work is not helping make the US prison system any better. An interesting issue, one that imagines that if enough socially responsible architects realize there is a problem then maybe all of those sleazy, money hungry firms you have all worked for will begin to see it too. The winner sees their poster in virtually every US architecture school and gets a nice shiny free book for all of their hard, donated time.
