The latest exhibition in the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art’s “New Work” series highlights Mexico City–based Lanza Atelier, established in 2015 by architects Isabel Martínez Abascal and Alessandro Arienzo. (The studio won a 2017 Architectural League Prize for Young Architects + Designers.) On view from March 31 through July 29, the “New Work: Lanza Atelier” features three projects: “Steps Table,” a hierarchical table and chairs; “Shared Structures,” prints based on axonometric drawings of multifamily projects in Mexico; and “Without Number,” a reimagining of Mexico City police stations into community facilities.
