Fellowship is the highest honor The American Institute of Architects (AIA) bestows, recognizing exceptional work and significant contributions to the field of architecture and society. For Stuart Coppedge, FAIA, AIA Pittsburgh Fellow and Board member and Senior Architect at Desmone, Fellowship is certainly an acknowledgement of past work and contributions, but it also brings a set of expectations for how you practice and serve. "As a Fellow, you are a torchbearer for ethical practice, not just in the business sense but in recognizing the 'ripple effects', positive and negative, large and small, your work has on people and the environment." Read Stuart's reflection on his journey of becoming an AIA Fellow here: https://lnkd.in/e2zukGHc
