Architects beautify and reconceptualize city skylines, devise public spaces that bring art out of galleries and to the masses, and create environmentally conscious structures to preserve our planet’s dwindling resources. African Americans were long barred from the architecture profession and have always faced enormous social and economic barriers.
Today, African American architects and designers are individual boundary-pushers willing to disrupt convention and welcome the spotlight. And we want to celebrate the number of Black Architects who have managed, designed, and constructed some of today’s most admired structures. You have are driven, intelligent, and unafraid, much like the black builders who came before you, you are trailblazers in your own ways, leaving your indelible mark on the world for years to come.
