At the American Institute of Architects (AIA) Conference in Chicago last week, amidst notable keynote speakers and events, the AIA St. Louis Chapter unveiled the 2022 winners of the annual National Architectural Photography Competition. Open to licensed architects in the United States, AIA associates, and students of accredited architecture schools, the competition honors professionals and students in the realms of architecture and design illustrating the built environments through photographs.
The jury awards cash prizes to the top three selections ($500 for first place, $400 for second, and $300 for third) and a fourth place Al Fuller Award for a subject in the U.S. Of almost 500 photographs, this year’s first place prize went to Iowa-city based Sanjay Dinker Jani for a close-up of the Rogers Stirk Harbour-designed Neo Bankside apartments’s translucent exterior. Michael B. Wilkes, of La Jolla, California, won second place for a detail of Culver City’s surreal copper-tinged Hayden Tract building by Eric Owen Moss Architects; Wilkes also received the Fuller prize for a black and white photo of the twisting concrete of San Francisco's angular Vaillancourt Fountain in San Francisco. Atlanta-based Danielle Willkens was awarded third place for an image depicting a colorful mess of abandoned appliances in Alabama.
