We are honored to share that Young Projects has been included in @archdigest AD100 list for 2026 for the second consecutive year. Thank you, @amyastley , @samuelcochran , and the full team at Architectural Digest. It is a tremendous privilege to be recognized among so many trailblazing architects and designers whose work keeps challenging and inspiring us. We are deeply grateful for our incredible clients whose trust continues to fuel the evolution of our practice from architecture to interiors and furniture design. Our appreciation also goes to the builders, fabricators, and artisans who bring our wildest ideas to life. In the year ahead, we'll be unveiling a series of new architectural and interior projects plus new furniture pieces. We look forward to sharing those with the world very soon! #ad100 #ad1002026 Photo @anndyjackson

The Six Square House has been nominated for a Mies Crown Hall America Prize. The prize founded by the College of Architecture at the Illinois Institute of Technology illustrates the excellence demonstrated in built works of architecture of the 21st century in the Americas. @miescrownhallamericasprize For the Six Square House, the client requested an architectural solution to collect various landscapes and activities around the site and serve as a central hub and gathering space. In response, the design for the Six Square House proposes a selectively truncated excerpt of a continuous planimetric tessellation of squares, equilateral triangles, and isosceles triangles. This patterning allows for the gabled ends of each square to “reach out” with multiple orientations both looking and receiving in all directions.   Thank you to our client and collaborating team!

theROLODEX | @young_projects Bryan's cheat sheet to a #renovation is here: 1. Favorite white paint? Chantilly Lace by Benjamin Moore 2. Favorite Moody paint? Varsity Blues by Benjamin Moore 3. Painter? Stephen Balser of @art_in_construction 4. Best stoneyard? @basstonenyc in New York 5. Bryan's recent stone obsession? Fantastico Arni for a fireplace in New Orleans 6. Fabricator? @chapterandverse_nyc (millworkers) 7. Designer to look out for? I recently met the team at @6am_glass in Milano 8. General contractor? @bonomodev in Los Angeles. Call Nick or Claudia—they’ll do an incredible job. 9. Favorite upholsterer? One we can’t live without (and are dying to work with): @ateliersjouffre . Based in Paris, with studios in New York and Los Angeles. 10. Trend Prediction? A move away from chaotic maximalist interiors toward something still eclectic—but more thoughtful about the relationship between the pieces within a space. 11. Dream Project? Any project in Los Angeles, where my family and friends are—and where I can soak up all the Dodgers energy: Shohei, Freddie, Mookie, Kiké, Yamamoto. Let’s go for the three-peat! DODGERS FANS RISE UP —— #TheRolodex — before I was a design professional™️ I remember buying my first home + feeling totally overwhelmed by how to approach the design journey. I would have *died* to work with an interior designer or architect but put every dollar I had into my down payment! I stalked some of my fave designers to see what I could learn from them but I didn’t find much... now as a designer, I know why us designers get some damn protective over great vendors (hint: they are hard to find!) but this series is for everyone out there who is just trying to MAKE IT HAPPEN I FEEL YOU. 🫡 #homerenovation #interiordesign #interiordesigners #designerhacks #homedesignideas #homedecor #therolodex #swike
