AIA reveals winners of 2017 Honor Awards for the year's best American architecture
Shigeru Ban's Colorado art museum, a Senegalese cultural centre by Toshiko Mori and a Pinterest office in San Francisco are among this year's recipients of design awards from the American Institute of Architects.
The AIA has announced 23Â winners of its 2017 Honor Awards, described as "the profession's highest recognition of works that exemplify excellence in architecture, interior architecture and urban design". The awards are bestowed upon architects licensed in the United States, although the projects can be located around the world.
The Aspen Art Museum in Colorado ? designed by Shigeru Ban Architects with associate firm CCY Architects ? and Thread: Artists' Residency and Cultural Center in rural Senegal by Toshiko Mori Architect were among the honorees in the architecture category. Other architecture winners include a micro-unit apartment tower in Manhattan, an energy facility at Standard University and the adaptive reuse of a tobacco warehouse in Brooklyn.
The Pinterest headquarters in San Francisco, by IwamotoScott with Brereton Architects, was recognised in the interiors category, while an SOM-designed masterplan for Philadelphia's 30th Street Station won in the regional and urban design category.
Chosen from roughly 700 submissions, the award recipients were selected by a jury of architects and academics.
