Firm of the Year!
[au]workshop is very surprised to announce that we have been named the 2015 AIA Colorado North Firm of the Year!
At a ceremony last night in a building designed by firm members, [au]workshop architects+urbanists was announced as the award recipient as selected by the American Institute of Architects (AIA) Colorado North Board of Directors. The Firm of the Year recognizes an AIA-member firm that has contributed to the profession and has set an example in design, service and leadership to AIA Colorado North, a region that includes Boulder, Greeley and Fort Collins.
The presentation was made at Loveland’s Rialto Theater Center—a building designed by Brian Betsill and Randy Shortridge while with a previous firm. The award is particularly gratifying as [au]workshop, founded in Fort Collins by Shortridge and Jason Kersley, has only been in operation since 2013-- less than three years.
Currently designing projects in Northern Colorado, Southern California, Hawaii and Thailand, [au]workshop creates quality, authentic architecture and catalytic urban, civic and commercial projects with a focus on projects that sustainably invigorate neighborhoods and cities.
