Situating Young Architects 7

Architecture has become an increasingly multidisciplinary profession, where concepts, techniques, and materials are readily shared with other disciplines, and the many ways an architect can define and address a design problem has redefined the role of the architect. "Situating? implies a wide-ranging approach to all phases of design, creating a more dynamic understanding of site and open-ended work that both acknowledges existing conditions and allows for mutability and change over time. The winners of the competition responded to these questions with answers as distinct as they are creative. They all offer multidimensional and unexpected definitions of the architectural site and illuminate the increasingly complex role of the twenty-first-century architect.Architectural League of New York Staff is the author of 'Situating Young Architects 7' with ISBN 9781568985732 and ISBN 1568985738.
