Additionally, in 2005, founder Carol Ross Barney received the AIAs Thomas Jefferson Award for Public Architecture.Ross Barney Architects believes that architecture should capture a contemporary vision of todays society, emphasizing that design excellence is a right, not a privilege. By operating on the principle that the design process examines the broadest range of opinions to create excellence, the studio has deployed an extraordinarily collaborative and holistic design process, engaging the client, user, and architect. Design doesnt happen exclusively in the brain of an architect, it happens in the synergetic interactions and exchange of ideas. Fundamentally, architecture is about joining two materials together. The studio continually explores deeper relationships between a buildings programmatic needs and its material application. This goes beyond aesthetics to allow the building to grow out of its place, its history, and its functional needs. This combination of a collaborative process and material exploration has allowed Ross Barney Architects to provide lasting contributions to the built environment, positioning the studio to continue leaving the world a better place.
