Look who has just been named one of the winners of the prestigious American Architecture Award, the one that is annually bestowed by the Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and the European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies. None other than our own Tampa
Museum of Art.
Of the 45 award-winning projects, TMA was the only building in Florida, and one of two (the North Carolina Museum of Art in Raleigh) in the Southeast so honored. Criteria included: originality, aesthetics and contribution to the Green Movement.
One word: Congratulations. Four other words: Rafael Vinoly carport. Not.
