The Museum of Modern Art and P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center announced today the selection of the New York City-based firm OBRA, led by Pablo Castro and Jennifer Lee, as the winner of the seventh annual MoMA/P.S.1 Young Architects Program. The competition invites emerging architects to propose a building project for the courtyard of P.S.1 in Long Island City, Queens. The objective of the Young Architects Program is to identify and provide an outlet for emerging young talent in architecture, an ongoing mission of both MoMA and P.S.1. This year, five finalists selected from twenty-five portfolio submissions were instructed to transform P.S.1's outdoor courtyard with the allotted project budget of $70,000.
