UNI
Young Architects Forum 2007: Proof
Recorded: May 31, 2007
Chaewon Kim and Beat Schenk are partners of the firm UNI, which they founded in Cambridge, MA in 2003. A design/build company, UNI acts simultaneously in the roles of architect, builder, owner, developer and broker, seeking innovative design solutions, while addressing economic and zoning pressures The firm’s most recent project (described in this video) includes four houses – XS, S, M, L – either renovated or newly built on a small lot in Cambridge that test and explore design solutions to housing problems.
The Architectural League’s Young Architects Forum (now known as The Architectural League Prize) is an annual competition and series of lectures and exhibitions organized by the Architectural League and its Young Architects Committee. The Forum 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.
