Biographical Text

Liam Young is a speculative architect and director who operates in the spaces between design, fiction, and futures. He is the founder of a think tank Tomorrows Thoughts Today, a group whose work explores the possibilities of fantastic, speculative, and imaginary urbanisms. Young also co-runs the Unknown Fields Division, a nomadic research studio that travels on location shoots and expeditions to the “ends of the Earth” to document emerging trends and uncover the weak signals of possible futures. He has taught internationally including the Architectural Association and Princeton University, and now runs an MA in Fiction and Entertainment at Southern California Institute of Architecture.
