The work emphasizes making, material sensation, figuration, and spatial complexity; hybrids and ambiguity exist in favor of singularity. The studio explores a variety of methods: breaking traditional techniques for fabrication, hand pulling plaster, growing crystals, and burning things - to name a few.
Young Projects’ work has been widely published internationally, and has received numerous awards including multiple nominations for the Mies Crown Hall Americas Prize (MCHAP), awards from AIA NY and AIA Long Island, Architect Magazine's P/A Award, Interior Design's NYCxDesign Award, Azure's Best Interior Product, multiple Architizer A+ Awards, and Architect Magazine's Research and Design Award.
