10 2008 aia nevada design awards 2008 EXCELLENCE IN DESIGN Awards AIA Nevada has applauded the exceptional design accomplishments of some of State s top architects through the Nevada Design Awards Program. The annual statewide program recognizes achievement of the highest standards of design excellence and quality in several categories. Projects ranged from private residences to public buildings and businesses. Several projects grappled with the task of adding to an existing building or buildings, reflecting nationwide trends to redensify a city as an alternative to sprawl and to define a sense of place in urban centers. All awards will be presented in November at the AIA Nevada Design Awards Banquet in Squaw Creek. In 2008, 59 project submittals were accepted for judging by three jurors: Edward M. Jones, AIA of Jones Studio, Inc. in Phoenix, Wendy Pautz, AIA of LMN Architects in Seattle and Thomas Bitnar, AIA of Bitnar Architects in Bozeman, Montana.

11 2008 aia nevada service awards Richard Licata, AIA 2008 AIA NEVADA SILVER MEDAL HONOREE The Silver Medal is the highest honor that AIA Nevada can bestow upon an individual and is awarded in recognition of the most distinguished service to the profession of architecture. Only one Silver Medal is awarded each year. The 2008 honoree is Ric Licata, AIA. As the current AIA Nevada President, Richard spearheaded many community based projects and studies in Nevada, demonstrating how architects can be a force for change. Examples of these successful efforts are the Sustainable Design Assessment Team (SDAT) Study for Northern Nevada and the Blueprint for Nevada, a sustainability plan for creating more livable communities in Nevada. As AIA 150 Champion Mr. Licata conducted many town hall meetings for the SDAT and Blueprint, and recognized community leaders who are also making a difference with AIA Nevada Livable Community Awards. A two term AIANN President, Mr. Licata created and oversaw the Reno Magazine Awards, a program featuring AIA architects and Allied members, with Gannett Publishing; received the AIA Nevada Service Award; created the planning committee and secured the Lake Tahoe venue for the wildly successful 2007 WMR Conference; conducted an SDAT; Chaired CANstruction; and was No. Nevada AIA 150 Champion while fulfilling the standard duties of President. As President of AIA Nevada Richard has provided the statewide vision for the Blueprint for Nevada, a document hailed by the AIA National Executive Committee as an example for the country to follow. He is Chair of the Blueprint for Nevada Task Force and provides effective leadership at State and national level through AIA Grassroots and legislative efforts on Capitol Hill and at the Nevada State Capitol. Most recently he was invited to speak at the AIA Grassroots Conference on AIA 150-What Nevada s done right and also received an invitation to speak Livable Communities Conference in Seattle, by the AIA Communities by Design. He has also been invited by the USGBC, both Las Vegas and Reno Chapters, to present Blueprint for Nevada concepts and studies. Mr. Licata is recognized by architects and the public as a resource for our profession, our communities and the American Institute of Architects, at both national and state levels. His lasting contributions have had a cumulative effect on the practice of architecture by virtue of his work, the effect he has on his students, his leadership on issues important to architects and the communities they serve, and for his continued vision for what the built environment can be. His efforts have transcended the standard notion of what architects do as a profession, into what it means to be an architect as a way of life. He has connected the seemingly separate areas of practice, service and teaching to one flowing dialog of creative force; all the while, acknowledging the humbling experience of being recognized for doing what he believes in because it s the right thing to do.
