Duke Reiter,
FAIA, Chicago
Wellington "Duke" Reiter, FAIA is a
prominent figure in the architectural academic community. After thirteen
years as a member of the faculty at the Department of Architecture at
MIT, Reiter became the Dean of the College of Design at Arizona State
University. While there he was responsible for the conceptualizing and
creating the University's new downtown Phoenix Campus. He has also been
a visiting professor at Harvard and the Rhode Island School of Design.
He is currently the President of the School of Art Institute of Chicago.
Through his professional practice Reiter has received multiple AIA Honor
Awards for Urban Design, the Kepes Prize for Interdisciplinary Design
from MIT, and four awards from the Association of Collegiate Schools
of Architecture. Reiter's drawings are highly acclaimed and have been
published across the US and Europe. His work is displayed in the collections
from the Museum of Fine Arts of Boston, San Francisco MoMA, and the
Boston Athenaeum. His drawings for speculative urban conditions have
been exhibited widely and examples are currently on view at the Venice
Biennale for Architecture through the end of 2009.
Anne
Schopf, FAIA, Seattle
Anne Schopf, FAIA has worked on a variety of commercial
residential projects, but prefers to focus on projects that can add
to the community, such as health care facilities and schools. Anne's
inventive use of concrete for both structure and finish creates a sustainable
building that can stand the test of time. Anne is currently a partner
and director of design at Mahlum Architects in Seattle where she aims
to create sustainable buildings that have strong ties to their surroundings.
Her projects have been honored by the AIA COTE Top Ten Green program,
among other national and local honor awards programs. Anne sees sustainable
design beyond the numbers. She believes architects should look at the
deeper issues when considering a building to ensure that it is not only
functional but also durable, versatile, and a beautiful addition to
its environment.
