The urbancanvas Design Competition was a unique opportunity that challenged professional artists and designers to create printed artwork for temporary protective structures at construction sites to beautify New York City's streetscape and promote maintenance of these structures. The competition selected four complementary designs for different types of temporary protective structures: construction fences, sidewalk sheds, supported scaffolds and cocoon systems.
The winning designs are now available through the urbancanvas Pilot Program for property owners and developers to install on temporary protective structures.
