Frida Escobedo

Frida Escobedo established her eponymous studio in Mexico City in 2006. The studio has gained global recognition since 2018, when Escobedo received the prestigious appointment to design the annual Serpentine Pavilion in London’s Kensington Gardens, becoming the pavilion’s youngest architect to date. Her practice defies the traditional boundaries of the discipline, operating at a wide array of scales and media, from buildings and experimental conservation projects to temporary installations and public sculpture, objects, publications, and exhibition design. In 2022, Escobedo was appointed as the architect to design the new Modern and Contemporary Wing for The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, becoming the youngest and first woman architect to design a building for the institution. Following her appointment as the Design Architect for The Tang Wing at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Frida opened a studio in New York City. The studio has been appointed associate designer to Moreau Kusunoki for the Centre Pompidou 2030 renovation.
