AIA RECOGNIZES SMALL PROJECTS Big has no monopoly on beauty. The American Institute of Architects (AIA) recently announced the 15 recipients of its 2008 Small Project Awards, recognizing excellence in furniture and fixtures, flood-resistant homes, and other small structures. This year's winners range from an entry canopy to a low-cost housing prototype to a window in a house fit for a hobbit (pictured). Next week Brian Libby will take a look at the diminuitive exemplars.
