REX Architecture P.C. is an internationally acclaimed architecture and design firm based in New York City, whose name signifies a re-appraisal (RE) or architecture (X). Operating across many scales, REX consistently advances new building paradigms and promotes the agency of architecture. Seminal projects include the Dee and Charles Wyly Theatre in Dallas, Texas; the Vakko Fashion Center in Istanbul, Turkey; and the Seattle Central Library--all opened to critical acclaim. The subject of numerous international exhibitions and publications, the work of REX has been recognized with many of the profession's top accolades, including the American Institute of Architects' National Honor Award in 2005 and 2011. ==History== REX's energetic think-tank of 25 designers, hailing from diverse cultural and educational backgrounds, is led by Joshua Prince-Ramus. Prince-Ramus was founding partner of OMA New York--the American affiliate of the Office for Metropolitan Architecture/Rem Koolhaas--and served as its Principal until he repositioned the firm as REX in 2006. While REX was still known as OMA New York, Prince-Ramus was Partner in Charge of the Guggenheim-Hermitage Museum in Las Vegas and the Seattle Central Library, hailed as ''Times 2004 Building of the year and by Herbert Muschamp in ''The New York Times'' as "the most exciting new building it has been an honor to review in more than 30 years of writing about architecture." In 2005, the Seattle Central Library was awarded the top honors bestowed by the American Institute of Architects, the American Library Association, and the American Council of Engineering Companies. The Library was one of seven finalists for the inaugural Mies Crown Hall Americas Prize, awarded to the best architectural work in the Americas completed from 2000 to 2013. The work of REX and Joshua Prince-Ramus has been exhibited and published extensively. Prince-Ramus has been credited as one of the "5 greatest architects under 50" by the ''Huffington Post'', one of the world's most influential young architects by ''Wallpaper *'', one of the twenty most influential players in design by ''Fast Company'', and listed among "The 20 Essential Young Architects"by ''ICON'' magazine. Prince-Ramus was the Eero Saarinen Visiting Professor at the Yale School of Architecture, and a visiting at the architecture schools of Columbia University, Harvard University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Syracuse University. Prince-Ramus is a member of the TED Brain Trust - along with Bill Gates, Craig Venter, Dean Kamen, Jeff Bezos, Larry Page and Sergey Brin - and shared REX's design methodologies at the TED2006 and TEDxSMU conferences. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rex Architecture P.C.」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
