Liam Young

Liam Young is a speculative architect who operates in the spaces between design, fiction, and futures. He is cofounder of Tomorrow’s Thoughts Today, an urban futures think tank that explores the local and global implications of new technologies; and Unknown Fields, a nomadic research studio that conducts expeditions to chronicle these emerging conditions as they occur on the ground. His work has appeared in the BBC, Wired, The Guardian, and Time. He is a BAFTA nominated producer and his work is included in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Victoria and Albert Museum, and MAAS in Sydney. He has taught at the Architectural Association and Princeton University, and now runs the M.A. in Fiction and Entertainment at Sci Arc in Los Angeles. Young's narrative approach sits between documentary and fiction, as he focuses on projects that reveal the invisible connections and systems making the modern world work.
