AIA Merit Award!

I got to go to the AIA local chapter awards lunch today and the Branscomb Community Center won an AIA Merit Award!  I had to walk up and get the award in front of a packed room of architects.  It was a little nerve racking but equally awesome!  What a great project I got to work on! 

Artist: Arne Quinze Camille

The city of Rouen asked him an installation to be set on the Boieldieu bridge on the occasion of the festival Rouen Impressionnée. Arne Quinze answered with a structure of remarkable scenic strength able to invite people to walk beneath and start social interaction.
