Taubman College Catie Newell, Architecture Lecturer, was named one of the winners of the 2011 Architectural League Prize for “Young Architects and Designers: It’s Different.” The award recognizes her work as a founding partner of Alibi Studio. The Architectural League Prize is an annual competition, series of lectures, and exhibition organized by the Architectural League and its Young Architects and Designers Committee. The League Prize was established to recognize specific works of high quality and to encourage the exchange of ideas among young people who might otherwise not have a forum. The lecture series and exhibition by winners of the competition provide a lively public forum for the discussion of their work and ideas. Information on this year’s exhibition and lectures will be posted shortly.
The jury consisted of Michael Manfredi, Thom Mayne, Hilary Sample, Annabelle Selldorf, Ken Smith; the Young Architects and Designers Committee: Lonn Combs, Phu Hoang, Aleksandr Mergold; and Architectural League Program Director, Anne Rieselbach.
