2025 Architecture Residency

Art Omi: Architecture 2025 residency open call. Application deadline: October 15, 2024, 11:59pm EST / Residency dates: May 30–June 16, 2025.

The Art Omi: Architecture residency program invites ten early- to mid-career architects from around the world to develop their work during a full two-week residency on Art Omi’s campus in New York’s bucolic Hudson Valley, two-and-a-half hours north of New York City.

Applications are now open for the 2025 cycle, which will take place from May 30–June 16, 2025. The deadline to apply is 11:59pm EST on October 15, 2024. Apply on our website.

Residents are selected through an open and free application process on the basis of their individual proposed project and portfolio. Completed projects are presented in an informal setting at the end of the residency period, with visitors invited to see the proceedings.

To apply
Applicants must submit and describe a project they wish to work on, on their own, while at Art Omi. Projects may be conceptual or practical, and may be an ongoing or existing project that requires completion or a new design scheme to be initiated and completed by the end of the residency. Projects may not be client-based nor directed. In all instances a visual presentation is required. This may be in the form of drawings, models, collages, digital images, and the like. 

Applications are open to architects from any part of the world that have been professionally active for at least the past five years since professional licensing or obtaining an MArch degree in the US or internationally. Applications will be accepted from early and mid-career architects in active practice or in academia with an architectural design teaching concentration.

Space is limited and a diverse and international group is sought, consistent with all Art Omi Residency programs and aligning with the mission of the Art Omi: Architecture program.

All completed applications adhering to the submission requirements will be reviewed by a distinguished panel of professionals. Among the jurors will be practicing architects, architects in academia, and architecture curators.
