Flinders Street shortlist

The shortlisted entrants for the Flinders Street Design Competition were announced on Sunday. Many of Melbourne’s larger more established practices are represented. Only ARM and NH chose to go it alone, with the other Melbourne practices partnering with well known offshore companies. The odd one out is the fledgling Velasquez/ Pineda/ Medina partnership. Eduardo Velasquez and Manuel Pineda have just completed their Masters at MSD. Santiago Medina is still a student in Colombia. No doubt they will be freaking out right about now – in a good way.

The list:

• Ashton Raggatt McDougall (Melbourne)
• John Wardle Architects + Grimshaw (Australia and UK)
• HASSELL + Herzog & de Meuron (Melbourne and Switzerland)
• NH Architecture (Melbourne)
• Eduardo Velasquez + Manuel Pineda + Santiago Medina (Colombia via University of Melbourne)
• Zaha Hadid Architecture & BVN Architecture (UK and Melbourne)
