WHAT: With its fifth biennial competition and exhibition, the AIANY New Practices Committee is proud to recognize six emerging architecture and design firms working in New York City. These firms will be featured in an exhibition opening on October 1 at 6pm at the Center for Architecture, 536 LaGuardia Place. This year, the opening of New Practices New York 2014 will also kick off Archtober 2014, Architecture and Design Month.
New Practices New York 2014 will showcase the work of:
The Bittertang Farm (http://bittertang.com/)
dlandstudio architecture + landscape architecture (http://www.dlandstudio.com/)
Fake Industries Architectural Agonism (http://www.fakeindustries.org/)
form-ula (http://www.form-ula.com/)
NAMELESS Architecture (http://namelessarchitecture.com/)
PARA-Project (http://www.para-project.org/)
The six winners have created floor-to-ceiling installations that play with the ideas of structure, reflection, and transparency, designed specifically for the Center for Architecture’s double-height storefront window. Other exhibition materials will include models, project images, renderings, and videos. Pentagram/Natasha Jen, the exhibition designer, has created a custom font for New Practices New York 2014 that will be used throughout the exhibition to highlight the firm’s design philosophies.
A roundtable discussion will precede the exhibition opening. On October 1 from 5-6pm, Beatrice Galilee, curator of architecture and design at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, will moderate a conversation with members of the winning firms.
