The competition is one of the most coveted and unique in the field of architecture and design, recognizing work that constitutes the vanguard of young professionals based in North America.</p>
<p>Every year since 1982, the organization has selected eight emerging practices based on a competitive portfolio competition. Past winners have included luminaries like Steven Holl, Enrique Norten, and Tatiana Bilbao. Each Voice is said to represent the future of architectural practice as seen in their designs’ potential to address large-scale issues and cast influence across multiple architectural disciplines. The jury reviews only realized work on an invite-only basis. </p>

Competitions have become managerialised, encased in regulation, procedure and risk-avoidance, and varnished in PR.</p></em><br /><br /><p>Rowan Moore of The Guardian gives his two cents on the “climate of caution” that has taken over architectural competition culture in Europe, where judging panels are more inclined to pick celebrity figures over emerging practices.</p>

Established in 1981 by the <a href="http://archinect.com/firms/cover/53068420/the-architectural-league-of-new-york" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Architectural League of New York</a>, the Prize carries a legacy in that many now-well-known architects received the award at the start of their careers, like <a href="http://archinect.com/stevenholl" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Steven Holl</a>, <a href="http://archinect.com/firms/cover/1492/twbta-tod-williams-billie-tsien" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Billie Tsien</a>, Stan Allen, <a href="http://archinect.com/firms/cover/26550/heneghan-peng-architects" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Shih-Fu Peng & Roisin Heneghan</a>, J. Meejin Yoon, James Slade & Minsuk Cho, and several more.</p><p>Open to North America-based designers who are no more than 10 years out of school, the juried portfolio competition had “Support” as its 2017 theme. 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 reinforcement are constantly in flux?”</p><p>Here are the winners!</p><p><strong><a href="http://archleague.org/2017/03/molly-hunker-and-greg-corso/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Greg Corso and Molly Hunker - S...</a></strong></p>
