Scott, you make a compelling argument, and I agree with all your points about there still being room for creativity when we are given a design. But I still think that if we are given a design that is set in stone most of the entries will wind up looking a lot like each other.

I actually really like Ernest's suggestion of having sketches to work from, rather than plans. Maybe by keeping the design direction loose that would aid in the diversity of the submitted work, which in my opinion is the most important issue. Also, working from sketches and filling in the gaps actually would represent the type of work I do 90% of the time.
