Marc Mondor Elevated to Fellow of the American Institute of Architects
Join us in congratulating evolveEA Principal and CoFounder Marc Mondor, FAIA, LEED Fellow for his recent elevation to the American Institute of Architects College of Fellows. Marc is one of 66 recipients to be elevated, one of only six from the “Led the Institute,” Object and one of three from Pennsylvania. The fellowship program was developed to recognize architects who have achieved a standard of excellence in the profession and made significant contributions to the profession and society on a national level. Fellows are selected by a 9-member jury.
“I’m happy to celebrate Mr. Mondor’s well deserved elevation to AIA Fellowship. Marc uses architecture as a platform for climate action, sustainability and equity in the profession and has built his practice (evolveEA) around these principles. Those values have motivated his AIA leadership through the relentless pursuit of strategies to help our profession tackle the most critical issues of our generation.”
William Bates, FAIA,
