A Larger View of the World The First Decade of the Driehaus Prize, Extended Version
Ten years ago, Chicago-based philanthropist and University of Notre Dame School of Architecture Dean Michael Lykoudis came together to create a prize that they felt was missing in the architecture world, a prize for classical architecture and traditional urbanism. Classical architecture and traditional urbanism represent a culture #39;s highest aspirations. The Richard H. Driehaus Prize at the University of Notre Dame was established to honor a living architect whose work embodies those principles in contemporary society. The Driehaus Prize has been presented annually since 2003 to architects representing various classical traditions, whose artistic impact reflects their commitment to cultural and environmental conservation. The first ten winners are Lon Krier, Demetri Porphyrios, Quinlan Terry, Allan Greenberg, Jaquelin Robertson, Andrs Duany, Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk, Abdel-Wahed El-Wakil, Rafael Manzano Martos, Robert AM Stern, and Michael Graves.From:ARCHdotNDdotEDUViews:0 0ratingsTime:11:50More inEducation
