2+2 Session at AIA25
One of the Annual Conference highlights, the College sponsored session 2+2 Achieving outstanding Design, was on Friday afternoon. Moderated by Chancellor Kate Schwennsen, FAIA, two award winning emerging architects were paired with two established Fellows for a presentation of their work and panel discussion of questions from the audience. Without a doubt, this was one of the best sessions of the Conference and highlighted a core mission of the College, the strong bond between Fellows and emerging architects.

2025 Latrobe Prize Winner
Facades for Public Health: SMOG-EATING PANELS
Principal Investigator:
Doris Sung, Associate Professor in the USC School of Architecture and Architect, AIA
ABSTRACT
Despite efforts to reduce carbon emissions, outdoor air pollution is on the rise in cities worldwide indicated by a high incidence of heart and lung diseases found in disadvantaged urban populations. Mitigating pollution to address public health impacts has increasingly become a crisis that even architecture must be called upon to address. The immense amount of square footage on the liminal surface of a building’s envelope can be tapped as a new type of infrastructure for supporting various outdoor public works as well as reducing public health problems. Our team proposes using this underutilized surface to filter urban smog with the end goal to pilot our results in new types of bus shelters in outdoor polluted areas in Los Angeles where young children and elderly spend large amounts of time. By use of localized fabrication methods, the panels are intended to be affordable and available to all communities worldwide.
