FTI Announces the 2025 Vitruvian Honors & Awards Program
The Facade Tectonics Institute is pleased to announce our third biennial Vitruvian Honors & Awards Program, for which registration is scheduled to open in mid-January 2025. The premiere celebration seeks to recognize unprecedented innovation and achievements in the field of facade design and delivery. FTI has developed a highly curated awards program to honor exemplary projects and project teams, and individuals that have made extraordinary contributions to facade design, engineering, fabrication, installation, and lifecycle performance.
Honing in on FTI's mission, the 2025 Vitruvian Honors & Award recipients will embody the goals of the Institute in advancing the art, science and technology of designing, planning, and constructing high performance building facades for the benefit of the planet and people. The chair of the 2024 Vitruvian Honors & Awards program is Peter Arbour, AIA.
