AIA Honors and Awards

From the earliest Gold Medal to the latest Thomas Jefferson Award, the archival records of the national AIA awards programs document the winners and reflect how architects looked at themselves and their practice during different eras.

Awards
The Institute Honor Awards for Architecture, Interior Architecture, and Regional and Urban Design began in 1949. A list of the winners is available online. Slides of all entries, not just the winners, are in the AIA Library's Audiovisual Collection. A list of the buildings that have received the Twenty-five Year Award is also available online.

The Gold Medal and the Architecture Firm Award are the AIA's highest honors for an individual architect and for an architecture firm, respectively.

An explanation of the AIA's current national awards programs, with lists of past winners, can be found in this year's Program Book on the AIA National Awards Web page. For further information about past awards, please contact the archivist.

The AIA Archives holds information only on AIA national awards. The library may be able to locate published articles on regional, state, and local awards, or you may wish to contact the component that gave the award for recent awards.

Fellowship
Copies of the nomination binders of new Fellows are available through the AIA Archives for $15 each, or $30 for color copies. Members who are being nominated for Fellowship may be particularly interested in the Jury of Fellows' recommended best examples of binders from recent years. Call or e-mail the archivist to order copies. Copies of binders do not include reference letters, which are confidential.
