League Prize 2017: Night 2

Jonathan Louie and Nicole McIntosh, Isabel Abascal and Alessandro Arienzo, Mustafa Faruki

June 29, 2017
7:00 p.m.

The second evening of lectures by winners of The Architectural League Prize features Mustafa Faruki of theLab-lab for architecture; Isabel Abascal andAlessandro Arienzo of LANZA Atelier; and Jonathan Louie and Nicole McIntosh ofArchitecture Office. A reception with the opportunity to view the exhibition will follow.

This year’s theme for the portfolio competition, Support identified a present situation in which precarious forms and precarious social arrangements exist side by side. How does one clarify the modes of support in architecture today when the discipline’s role is obscured by a tangled network in which exchanges between built form and various systems of framing, assistance, and reenforcement are constantly in flux?

The League thanks the Sheila C. Johnson Design Center at The New School’s Parsons School of Design for co-sponsoring and hosting the League Prize exhibition and lectures.
