College of Fellows
The College of Fellows seeks to stimulate a sharing of interests among Fellows, promote the purposes of the Institute, advance the profession of Façade design, mentor young Façade creators, and be of ever-increasing service to the Institute. The College of Fellows, founded in 2016, is composed of members of the Institute who are elected to Fellowship by a jury of their peers. Fellowship is one of the highest honors the FTI can bestow upon a member. Elevation to Fellowship not only recognizes the achievements in Façade design as an individual but also elevates before the public and the profession those Façade creators who have made significant contributions to architecture and to the Institute.
