AIA HONORS OLSON SUNDBERG KUNDIG ALLEN The American Institute of Architects has named Olson Sundberg Kundig Allen Architects the recipient of the AIA Architecture Firm Award for 2009. In bestowing this distinction, the AIA cited the Seattle firm's "35 years of consistently excellent work, including its seamless blending of architecture, art, and craft; community involvement; attention to sustainable design; and nurturing of in-house talent." One of the firm's many award-winning projects is the Chicken Point Cabin in northern Idaho (photo by Benjamin Benschneider). Next week writer Brian Libby will look at more buildings and the firm culture behind them.
