The Young Architects Program, launched and coordinated by MoMA, reaches its 8th edition at MAXXI.
It is the London-based studio Cut-Out of Lucy Styles, for many years in the team of SANAA Studio founded by Pritzker Prize winner Kazuyo Sejima, the winner of the eighth edition of YAP Rome at MAXXI. The programme sees MAXXI, MoMA and MoMA PS1 together in collaboration with the Constructo Association of Santiago de Chile for the support of emerging architecture.
Lucy Styles’ winning project, Home Sweet Home, is a sequence of intimate yet open spaces, open-air rooms designed both as a metaphor for domestic life and as the museum’s secret garden and extension of its exhibition space.
An international jury chose the project among the five proposals submitted by the finalists of YAP Rome at MAXXI: Ateliermob (Portugal), Breathe Earth Collective (Austria), Ecòl (Italy), Gnomone (Italy), Cut-Out c/o Lucy Styles (Great Britain).
The five projects will be on display for an exhibition dedicated to the YAP programme and the first edition of the Italian Architecture Prize, promoted by MAXXI and Triennale Milano, which this year awards the winner of YAP Rome at MAXXI with the “best designer under 40” award. The exhibition will be open to the public in the autumn.
