First look: Kevin Daly Architects' winning Houston Endowment HQ proposal, three runner-up designs also unveiled


Last year, the Houston Endowment launched a two-stage design competition seeking the team to design their new $20 million headquarters, which will enable the philanthropic organization to move their current offices into the city's business district. The 40,000-square-foot building will provide healthy workspaces, accessible meeting spaces, and flexible engagement facilities for the organization's staff and community partners.

Most recently, the Houston Endowment unveiled the four finalist designs by multi-disciplinary teams led by Deborah Berke Partners, Olson Kundig, Kevin Daly Architects, and Schaum/Shieh Architects, who were shortlisted from 121 teams representing 22 countries last August and each received a $50,000 honorarium. The jury unanimously selected Kevin Daly Architects' team's design, while Olson Kundig received an honorable mention.

The project is currently slated for a 2022 opening.

Here's a look at the finalist designs:

Going beyond borders, oceans, and thinking of the continents as a continuous entity comes from this vision. Fifty years later, we face the existential threat of ecological disaster, and maybe revisiting the whole earth project seems like a way of recapturing that drive. This proposal looks at a network of towers that span across the oceans connecting the planet in a matrix that provides energy cleans the oceans and gives new chances for life to thrive. Fusion, Solar, and Hydro-power are used in this matrix with all of these being in high abundance in the ocean. The towers are also self-sufficient and mine minerals from the water as well as farm to support their communities. Research and manufacturing also feature heavily. The connections of the g
