KieranTimberlake Earns Three National AIA Design Awards
KieranTimberlake projects earned three 2024 Design Awards at last week's AIA Conference:
- Architecture Award for the John A. Paulson Center at New York University
- Education Facility Award for the John A. Paulson Center at New York University
- Housing Award for North Campus Housing at the University of Washington
The Architecture Award celebrates exemplary projects that highlight the ways buildings and spaces can improve our lives, while the Education Facility Award showcases how architects are creating cutting-edge spaces that enhance modern pedagogy.
The Paulson Center embodies these attributes as an innovative vertical campus that sets a new paradigm for multi-use university facilities. It was designed in collaboration with Davis Brody Bond, A Page Company.
A jury comment noted that "[e]ven though it is so big, there's nothing in this project that feels out of scale with everything that surrounds it. The project's roof garden provides a wonderful green space that's hard to find in New York City."
By recognizing the best in residential design, the Housing Award shows the world how beauty, safety, sustainability, and comfort can come together.
The University of Washington's North Campus Housing provides a vibrant living and learning community for 2,000 students by weaving together four buildings and their accompanying landscapes on a previously isolated site.
Graham Baba and GGLO served as Associate Architects on the project.
"The facade treatment for this project is very elegant, and the team's craftsmanship is exceptional. The building is set within its context but remains legible as a campus building through its warmth and materiality," wrote one juror.
