March 1, 2010—The American Institute of Architects (AIA) has selected the recipients of the 2010 Institute Honors for Collaborative Achievement. The award, to be presented at the 2010 AIA National Convention and Design Exposition in Miami, recognizes and encourages distinguished achievements of allied professionals, clients, organizations, architect teams, knowledge communities, and others who have had a beneficial influence on or advanced the architectural profession.

The 2010 honorees are:

• The Architect's Newspaper: an independent, comprehensive source for news and debate, contributing to the advancement of knowledge and public awareness on issues that affect architects, academics, contractors, and anyone interested in the built environment.
• Texas Architect Magazine: a 60-year-old financially and editorially independent magazine with a circulation of approximately 12,000 whose reach reportedly extends far beyond the Texas borders to 40 states to create a far-flung community of practitioners, emerging professionals, architectural students and faculty, and design-savvy members of the general public.
• The Alaska Design Forum: a nonprofit educational organization of architects, artists, and designers formed to broaden the range of discussion of the design of the built environment. ADF presents programs that expose the community to leading-edge design and art ideas and encourage discussion on the relevance of these ideas to life and design in Alaska, which AIA says is vital since the state contains no architecture schools and a very small architecture community of only 200 practitioners, many of whom live out-of-state.
