February 12, 2007 (NEW YORK, NY) – Frank Harmon, FAIA, principal of the award-winning firm Frank Harmon Architect PA in Raleigh, was one of the judges for the New York City Chapter of the American Institute of Architects’ 2007 design awards program. The judging took place in New York City on February 12.
AIA/New York’s Design Awards Program recognizes excellence in architectural design by New York City architects and in New York City projects. The program’s purpose is “to increase awareness of outstanding architecture and to honor the architects, clients, and consultants who work together to improve the built environment.” Projects submitted could be located anywhere but they had to be designed by a member of the AIA’s New York chapter or registered architects practicing in New York City.
Later this month, Harmon will help select the winners of the AIA/South Carolina Spring Design Awards Program. In April, he will serve as a juror for the AIA/Austin, Texas, design awards program.
Harmon is also a professor of architecture at the College of Design, North Carolina State University, and has served on many design awards juries, including the national jury for the American Institute of Architects’ 2005 Institute Honor Awards. He is currently serving on the U.S. General Services Administration’s National Register of Peer Professionals to improve public buildings. He is also a veteran speaker at regional and national design conferences, including the 2005 and 2006 National AIA Conventions where he presented the popular “Architects Discuss America’s New Regionalism” seminar.
