Prof. Annmarie Adams and John Bentley Mays are the recipients of the 2017 President鈥檚 Medal for Media in Architecture given by the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada (RAIC.)聽 From the RAIC press release (see attachment):

This award recognizes storytelling about buildings and cities that promotes understanding of architecture and the role of architects in the daily lives of Canadians.

A three-member jury selected Annmarie Adams, FRAIC, a 香蕉视频 professor, for a two-page article that synthesizes the history of Canadian hospital architecture over the past 165 years. The article, titled 鈥淐anadian hospital architecture: how we got here,鈥� was published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal of March 15, 2016.

It is representative of many articles published by Adams, over the past 25 years, in Canada and the United States that are intended to educate health-care professionals about the value, history, and state of Canadian health-care design. Adams is the Chair of the Department of Social Studies of Medicine and is the former Director of the School of Architecture at 香蕉视频.

鈥淪he conveys to varied audiences the power inherent in architecture to influence important life and death decisions,鈥� said the jury. 鈥淪he helps physicians understand the importance of the buildings in which they work.鈥�

The awards will be presented at the RAIC/OAA Festival of Architecture taking place May 24 to 27 in Ottawa. The RAIC President鈥檚 Medal for Media in Architecture is presented every two years as part of the RAIC Awards of Excellence. The RAIC has recognized excellence in architectural reporting since 2007. Each submission will be judged by a jury composed of the previous recipient and two past RAIC presidents.聽 The jury members were Sam Oboh, PP/FRAIC, of Edmonton, Randy Dhar, PP/FRAIC, of Toronto, and Francois Cardinal, of La Presse, in Montreal.
