Background

This is the nineteenth year of the Architectural League's Young Architects Forum. Participants in the program are chosen in a portfolio competition that is juried by distinguished architects, artists and critics and the Young Architects Committee. The committee, a group selected each year from past participants in the Young Architects Forum, is responsible for developing the program's theme and selecting competition jurors. Open to designers ten years or less out of school, the competition draws entrants from around the country. The lecture series and exhibition by winners of the competition provide a lively public forum for the discussion of their work and ideas. Winners' designs will also be illustrated in a catalogue to be published by Princeton Architectrual Press.
