Studio RED Architects is AIA Houston Firm of the Year 2015
The Houston Chapter of the American Institute of Architects (AIA) has named Studio RED Architects as Firm of the Year 2015. Its four founding partners shaped Studio RED as a unique, alternative architectural practice, countering the traditional model normally seen. The AIA Houston Firm of the Year Award is presented annually to a Houston architecture firm that has consistently produced distinguished work for a period of at least 10 years.
“We couldn’t be more proud to be presented the Firm of the Year Award by our peers,” says Pete Ed Garrett, partner. The firm was honored at the 2015 Celebrate Architecture Gala on April 25. Follow the link to read more and to watch the Firm of the Year video.
