COMPETITIONS
Deadline :Monday, February 08, 2010

Architectural practice relies on resources: disciplinary resources, such as theory and technique; physical resources, such as materials and production technologies; and practical resources, such as coordination, planning, and financing. However, recent global shifts --  from the financial crisis to the environmental crisis -- are demanding that architects and designers rethink their resources, producing new approaches, techniques, and even terminology within our discipline. Young architects and designers are invited to submit work to the annual Architectural League Prize Competition. Projects of all types, either theoretical or real and executed in any medium, are welcome. Winners will receive a cash prize of $1,000, as well as an additional stipend for transportation determined at set levels based on the applicant's proximity to New York.
