SACRAMENTO, Calif. (Feb. 25, 2014) The practice of architecture can sometimes be about creating a legacy—either in portfolio or firm culture or contribution to society within other categories. The AIACC Council Awards Program celebrates these attributes with the Council Awards Program. This year’s recipients were announced at the Feb. 21 Board of Directors meeting in Sacramento.
Distinguished Practice Award:
Ione Stiegler, FAIA, of La Jolla, received this honor for her contribution to historic preservation. This award recognizes significant contributions and accomplishments toward a specific building type or practice area. This is a first in council history as one has never before received it for historic preservation. The review committee paid particular attention to her interesting integration or archeology with historic preservation, and thought it highly commendable how her work “indicates research not broadly held.”
