Sergio Palleroni wins AIA 2011 Latrobe Prize
The American Institute of Architects (AIA) named Sergio Palleroni, professor of architecture at Portland State University, and three of his colleagues from across the country as the recipients of AIA’s 2011 Latrobe Prize. Palleroni and his colleagues won for their research proposal looking into the role architects play – and could play in the future – in public interest.
The prize includes $100,000 in research funding for the team, which in addition to Palleroni,
includes Bryan Bell, executive director of Design Corps; Roberta Feldman, professor at the University
of Illinois at Chicago; and David Perkes, AIA, director of Gulf Coast Community Design Studio at
Mississippi State University. Theirs was one of nearly 500 proposals considered for the prize, which is
given every two years.
