RIBA Honorary Fellowships

The RIBA Council has approved 14 new RIBA Honorary Fellowships to reward individuals from a wide range of backgrounds, including politics, journalism, architecture, engineering and the arts.
RIBA Honorary Fellowships are awarded annually to people who have made a particular contribution to architecture – in the broadest sense. This includes its promotion, administration and outreach; and its role in building more sustainable communities and in the education of future generations.

RIBA President Angela Brady said:

'Each of this year's Honorary Fellows has made an enormous contribution to architecture, whether as a practitioner, designer, curator, writer or policy maker. The RIBA values everything that they have brought – in their very different ways – to the knowledge, understanding and appreciation of the world of architecture. I look forward to presenting them with their Honorary Fellowships in February.'

(“今年的每个荣誉院士都对建筑作出了巨大贡献,无论是作为一个从业者,设计师,策展人,作家或决策者。英国皇家建筑师学会赞赏他们以各自非常不同的方式给带来的一切,包括对建筑世界的知识,理解和欣赏。我期待在二月向他们颁发荣誉院士证书。”)
