Current and founding members:
STANLEY CHO has practiced architecture at offices such as Barkow Leibinger, Morphosis, and the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation. His projects have ranged in scale from tool sheds to city masterplans. He studied cinema, art and design at UCLA Design Media Arts and the NYU Tisch School of the Arts. His works have shown at international film festivals such as Chicago and Oberhausen. He received a master's degree at the Yale School of Architecture, writing a thesis that concerns the Enlightenment, a public bathroom, and bourgeois-sub-modernist theory.
ELISA ITURBE is an architectural designer, writer, and educator. Her research looks at the relationship between energy, power, and form, with a focus on how the adoption of fossil fuels changed the spatial organization of the built environment. Her writings have been published widely, including AA Files, Perspecta, New York Review of Architecture, E-Flux, and Antagonismos. She guest-edited Log 47, titled “Overcoming Carbon Form,” in which Iturbe introduced the idea of carbon form for the first time. The body of essays that became the precursor for the co-curated and co-produced exhibition Confronting Carbon Form at The Cooper Union, which exhibited original works in various media that work together to define the spatial concepts of the carbon age. This work was a collaboration between Outside Development and Alican Taylan and supported by the Graham Foundation and the New York State Council for the Arts. Iturbe is currently Assistant Professor of Architecture at Harvard University’s Graduate School of Design and previously taught courses on carbon modernity and formal analysis at The Cooper Union, the Yale School of Architecture, and Cornell AAP. She also co-wrote a book with Peter Eisenman titled Lateness.
PERRY WEXELBERG is a California licensed architect. He studied sculpture at UC Santa Cruz and Architecture at Yale.
