Aamodt / Plumb Selected as Groundbreakers
Curbed’s inaugural Groundbreakers award honors dozens of architects, from eight firms both seasoned and new, who are making cutting-edge work that’s changing the way the built world functions.
The awards editorial mission is as follows: How does one build a practice in today’s economy? How can a designer assert his or her own moral beliefs when working in a traditional client-based structure? How does architecture address and incorporate other disciplines, from biology to sociology to technology to art?
How can a designer assert his or her own moral beliefs when working in a traditional client-based structure?
The first-ever class of Groundbreakers does it all (and more): health centers in impoverished countries, startup offices, guidebooks for building a modern home, prefab in a major American city, stage sets for Kanye West.
The firms selected are: Mass Design Group, Family New York, El Dorado Inc., Aamodt / Plumb Architects, Iwamoto Scott, Bureau V, KSS Architects
