In an article written for Veranda, ICAA President Peter Lyden offers his reflections on King Charles III's longtime dedication to architecture, housing, and sustainability, and ponders what the future may hold now that he has ascended to the throne. From the preservation of Dumfries House as an educational center, to the conception and implementation of the visionary town of Poundbury, to the fruitful collaborations with the ICAA through the Prince's Foundation (which include the Award for Emerging Excellence in the Classical Tradition and the Architecture of Place series), the new sovereign's list of accomplishments is indeed already long.

On Tuesday, August 11th, the ICAA, INTBAU, and The Prince's Foundation hosted a panel discussion with the past and current recipients of the Award for Emerging Excellence in the Classical Tradition, in celebration of the recipients' work, their experiences after winning the Award, and the bright future of traditional design that they represent.
The program was introduced by His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales (now King Charles III), who offered his congratulations to the 2020 winners of the award, and expressed his firm belief in the importance of thoughtful architecture and design in creating humane places and healthy communities.

When was the last time you talked about the birds and the bees with your design clients? This engaging talk by Melissa Reavis, residential studio director of Hollander Design Landscape Architects, may encourage you to have a new kind of design conversation. Drawing on the firm’s inspiring design portfolio of residential properties around the world, Reavis leaves no doubt about the imperatives and possibilities for designing healthy landscapes that benefit insects, plants, animals and humans. Reavis shows how biodiversity in residential garden settings can be designed within any aesthetic and enhance the overall experience of a landscape and its connection to architecture.
Presented as part of the Bunny Mellon Curricula at the Institute of Classical Architecture & Art. The ICAA is very grateful to the Curricula's Lead Sponsor Hollander Design Landscape Architects, the Continuing Education and Public Programs Sponsor Charlotte Moss, and Film Series Sponsor Janice Parker Landscape Architects. The ICAA is very grateful to the Gerard B. Lambert Foundation for its generous support of this program

The ICAA is proud to announce the inaugural Gindroz Award for Excellence in Affordable Housing this year. The Award was named to honor the work of Ray Gindroz, FAIA, for his over fifty years of work in Affordable and Mixed-Income housing over his career at Urban Design Associates (UDA). As co-founder of UDA, Ray served as Chairman of Urban Design Associates (UDA) and led countless projects focused on transforming public housing into mixed-income neighborhoods. Ray showed significant interest in the policies, governance structure, and physical design years before it was a major issue.
Eric Osth, AIA is the current Chairman of UDA, a Board Member and Fellow of the ICAA, and the Chair of Gindroz Award Panel, and in August of 2022, he had the opportunity to interview Ray to learn more about his interest and passion in this area of practice.
The ICAA is grateful for the support of the Muse Family Foundation for making the Gindroz Award for Excellence in Affordable Housing possible.
