submit
Sandbox welcomes submissions from anyone either in or holding interest in the realms of architecture, design, the built environment, and far beyond. We encourage written essays, photo, video, or audio media, design projects, and any other media suitable for digital display. We encourage submissions which challenge/expand our understanding of traditional formatting or relevance to the theme. Send completed work or abstracts to sandboxatgt@gmail.com before November 13th.
Submissions can be either completed works or abstracts/proposals of work. Chosen submitters may receive optional edits from the Sandbox team, and selection for publication is ultimately based on finalized work. Selected works may be paired with response works to generate and prompt dialogue. Exemplary works throughout the thematic cycle may be selected for inclusion in an end-of-cycle printed release.
