Thank you so much for everyone who helped or participated with this competition. I know that I have learnt a lot in the whole process. Thank you especially to Princeton Architectural Press for donating the prizes. I know the winners are going to love these books and I will be reviewing some of them over the coming weeks. Also thank you to my tech team of one - my husband Rob who finally got the poll software up and running (the cause of the delay), I see more polls in whipup’s future. Of course to all the fabulous entrants. Most of which I could not feature, I am dreadfully sorry, so many entries and choosing a good selection for the short list was really difficult. And thanks to the readers who voted and who care about the whole thing anyway. This is beginning to sound like a dreadful grammy awards speach so without further ado … another poll.

Cheers and thanks

Thank you to everyone for entering, sorry if your entry did not make it to the final eight. It was a tough decision, there were lots of great entries. And now I want to see which one YOU the readers like best, to that end I will be running three polls to see which banner is going to be the new WhipUp Banner.

The last of the promised three polls. Giving everybody a chance to share their opinion. I am amazed by the spread of opinion out there. Keep on the participatory spirit.

You will need to go the banner competition page to view the eight finalists. And you will also need to refresh yourself with WhipUp’s manifesto.

The second poll is WhipUp’s Manifesto - please ensure that when voting you are thinking about some of the key points in the manifesto.
