The Architecture League created the Emerging Voices lecture series in 1982 to recognize and encourage architects who are beginning to achieve prominence in the profession. Now celebrating its 25th anniversary, the series focuses primarily on built work, at a variety of scales, and is structured to reflect the diversity of contemporary practice - geographically, stylistically and ideologically. This year the series will be presented both in New York City and at Washington, DC area architecture schools in collaboration with the National Building Museum.

For the third consecutive year, the Architectural League will produce podcast interviews with each of the Emerging Voices participants.

Moorhead & Moorhead
Moorhead & Moorhead is a New York based architecture and industrial design collaboration formed in 2000 by brothers Granger Moorhead and Robert Moorhead. Exploring function and materially at scales ranging from furniture to architecture, Moorhead & Moorhead combines the brothers'  distinct backgrounds in architecture and industrial design, leading to "a unique synthesis of their expertise in detailing, fabrication and spatial design." A prototype shop allows full-scale experimentation of materials and ideas. Recent projects include the Mobile Chaplet; Uruguay Compound in Jose Ignacio, Uruguay; Hanover Square Loft in New York; Filament Wound Bench and Rubber Lamp.

Johnsen Schmaling Architects
Brian Johnsen and Sebastian Schmaling founded Johnsen Schmaling Architects in 2002 as a design and reserch studio in Milwaukee. Exploring the local "tensions between a besieged urban rustbelt and its agrarian hinterland," Johnsen Schmaling Architects informs its projects with "a poetic reading of site and terrain that rejects contextual mimesis as much as modernism's preoccupation with self-referential objects; instead, Johnsen Schmaling's intense dissection of context and cultural memory translates into an abstract palette of articulate architectural operations and a sober design vocabulary, transcending both entropic rustbelt fantasies and bucolic sentimentalism that, for decades, have stymied the architectural discourse in Middle America." Recent projects include the Ferrous House in Spring Prairie, WI; the Camouflage House in Green Lake, WI and the Parts House Pavilion and Blatz Housing in Milwaukee.

All lectures will be held at the New Museum, 235 Bowery, New York City. Free admission to this year's lectures is made possible by the sponsorship of USM Modular Furniture. Members may make reservations for themselves and a guest beginning 01 February 2008, non-members beginning 25 February 2008.
