Contest: Design the first three-sided Apple Store

According to the details at the ifo site:

"All submitted graphics will be considered to be under the Creative Commons license, allowing publication on the IFO Web site with attribution (indicate how you want to be credited)"

Your entered graphics are Creative Commons, the design is not. If your design were stolen you'd have legal rights. This is why the "reward" is so little.

"It's still not the best area -- if you go about three blocks south or west it gets kind of sketchy"

That's sketch? Oh my goodness!

In my opinion it just seems sketchy because nobody is around at night because a few blocks west is mostly industrial real estate and nobody really lives there or has any reason to be there other than grocery shopping at Stanley's or my friends, who live there.

I'm excited that I'm going to get a new Apple Store!

Is it too much of a stretch to expect these features on the next iPhone in June?

- HSUPA - faster uplink speeds for the video share that AT&T has. I don't expect a front-facing camera.

- A better camera experience. At least 4 MP and a new side button so I can hold the phone in landscape to take photos and videos.

- OLED display. Samsung is coming out with a OLED camera soon with a 3" screen. Why not on the iPhone?

It seems some folks are confused. Apple has nothing to do with this contest. BCJ is designing the store. ifoAppleStore, the news site, is having a contest to see which user can come up with the most creative way to utilize the space. Apple won't be building the store designed by the winner, as the new store is already designed and under construction.

wow talk about some lazy architects.

"hey jim, I got an idea. let pay some poor sap $100 to design the store for us. We'll still make $400k from Apple for the design and get some cheap publicity."

I hate these stupid competitions.

They've updated the space again, apparently the lot marked "6" is now designated a "service drive" (meaning what exactly? Can they store inventory there?) so the dimensions of the store are even smaller now.

huh! just a $100? I hate these guyz!! The'll be solving a $10,000 problem with this contest and are giving away $100 only? ughhhhhhh!! The winner should at least win an iPhone!

That's so crazy! There's a really crappy bar just a block west of that lot, where my band got its start. There's definitely a lot of contrast in the area -- upscale retail just around the corner from total dives. To be able to see a giant Apple logo from the doorway of Weed's -- that's a weird thought!

For $100 I wouldnt design and apple store... now for one of those macbooks pro's unibody... sure i would get on it right away. then again its not apple offering the gifts...

Um, Durham, NC - Southpoint has 3 exposed sides.
