Architecture has become an increasingly multidisciplinary profession, where concepts, techniques, and materials are readily shared with other disciplines, and the many ways an architect can
define and address a design problem has redefined the role of the architect. 'Situating' implies a wide-ranging approach to all phases of design, creating a more dynamic understanding of site and
open-ended work that both acknowledges existing conditions and allows for mutability and change over time. In
Young Architects 7: Situating, young architects were asked to broaden the
concept of 'siting' to include the 'situating' of an architectural problem.
The winners of the competition Greg Kochanowski, ROEWU Architecture, Lateral Architecture, Dan Hisel Design, LinOldham Office, and Interboro responded to these questions with answers as
distinct as they are creative.
