AIA New York announced the recipients of their 2018 Design Awards tonight at the Center for Architecture, and the winners were once again varied across project type, scale, and country.
Narrowing their scope from the 35 winners chosen last year, this year’s group of distinguished AIA New York members presented exceptional examples of work the world over, with only 12 of the 32 projects based in New York.
The jurors were as varied as the projects they were judging, and included the following:
- Gro Benesmo, Partner, S P A C E G R O U P
- Ila Berman, DDes MRAIC, Dean and Edward Elson Professor, UVA School of Architecture
- Aaron Forrest, AIA, NCARB, Principal, Ultramoderne
- Walter Hood, Creative Director, Hood Studio
- Tom Kundig, FAIA, Principal and Owner, Olson Kundig Architects
- Debra Lehman Smith, Partner, LSM Studio
- Meejin Yoon, AIA, Co-Founder, Höweler + Yoon Architecture LLP, Professor and Head of the Department of Architecture, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
The biggest award of the night went to the collaborative efforts of Adjaye Associates, Freelon Group (now Perkins+Will), Davis Brody Bond, and SmithGroupJJR, for their work on the ethereal Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture, which both references its surroundings while integrating African and American historical references.
