Hondoq ir-Rummien designs
Published on The Malta Independent on Sunday on 25th October, 2009 by Joseph Borg.
The article by Annaliza Borg that dealt with the design for Hondoq ir-Rummien paid worthy tribute to three young architecture students (TMIS, 18 October).
It so happened that I actually did see the projects myself, and especially appreciated the extremely lovely posters they had prepared. Unfortunately, I am more than sure that the monetary award they received did not cover all the expenses they incurred. I also hope that their designs will not be hijacked by someone who will get a hefty six per cent commission minimum.
If anything, such projects should be put on hold until these students graduate and can take charge of the project.
