Reframing Charlotte: A Challenge

The Mecklenburg Times wants residents of the Charlotte area to weigh in on 10 home designs that local architects created to represent our region.
 
The designs are the result of a challenge we threw out to architects in February: Design a “Charlotte-style” house.
 
“Reframing Charlotte: A Challenge” was inspired by comments made by Charlotte-Mecklenburg Planning Director Debra Campbell, when she was presented with the “Real Estate Person of the Year” award by Commercial Real Estate Women Charlotte at the group’s December luncheon.
