Design Challenge: The John Stewardson Memorial Competition in Architecture was founded after the tragic death of John Stewardson, a prolific designer and partner in the well-known Philadelphia firm of Cope & Stewardson. Following his funeral a collection was taken up by his fellow architects which became a fund for a traveling fellowship for a young architect to study architecture abroad.

Following tradition, the competition materials are kept sealed until 10 days prior to the submission deadline when they are opened and each entrant works in a solo charette to complete the design and submit it back to the jury.
