Joshua Prince-Ramus is Principal of REX Architecture P.C. Buildings currently under construction include the Dee and Charles Wyly Theatre in Texas; Museum Plaza, a 62-story art institute and mixed-use development in Louisville, Kentucky; and the Istanbul headquarters for Vakko, Turkey’s preeminent fashion company. REX recently won the international competition to design the new central library for Kortrijk, Belgium, and is one of three finalists for the new Edvard Munch Museum in Oslo, Norway.

Prince-Ramus was a founding partner of OMA New York—an American affiliate of the Netherlands-based Office for Metropolitan Architecture—and served as its Principal until he renamed the firm REX in 2006. While REX was still known as OMA New York, Prince-Ramus was Principal in Charge of the Guggenheim-Hermitage Museum in Las Vegas and the Seattle Central Library, hailed as Time magazine’s 2004 Building of the Year and by the late New York Times architecture critic Herbert Muschamp as “the most exciting new building it has been my honor to review in more than 30 years of writing about architecture.”
