More information here: http://cfa.aiany.org/index.php?section=upcoming&expid=126 New Practices New York 2010 is the third juried portfolio competition and exhibition in a new biennial tradition sponsored by the New Practices Committee of the AIA New York Chapter. It serves as a platform for recognizing and promoting new, innovative and emerging architecture firms within New York City that have undertaken unique and commendable strategies - both in the projects they undertake and the practices they have established. Distinguishing this award from others given to new and young practices is the attention focused on how the winning firms' practices have been uniquely shaped to better facilitate and exploit the type of projects that are undertaken. From the 65 submitted portfolios, jury members Toshiko Mori, FAIA (Toshiko Mori Architect), Joe MacDonald, Assoc. AIA (Urban A&O), William Menking (The Architect's Newspaper), Guy Nordenson (Guy Nordenson and Associates) and Galia Solomonoff, AIA (Solomonoff Architecture Studio) selected 7 firms who embody the spirit of the New Practices New York competition: Archipelagos EASTON + COMBS (highest honor winner) LEONG LEONG MANIFOLD SOFTlab SO-IL (Solid Objectives - Idenburg Liu) Tacklebox Exhibition Design: LEVENBETTS
