Lessons From Abroad II

Tracing Architecture was again awarded a grant in the fall of 2023 to share the stories of two individuals who’ve benefitted from the support of the Arizona Architecture Foundation – a group whose mission is to enhance the welfare of the Arizona community by promoting excellence in architecture and the built environment by supporting the education of future architects, supporting and promoting the profession of architecture, and preserving the legacy of Arizona architecture. In this special episode, we highlight the Foundation's support of our community in developing young professionals, through exposure to unique experiences in travel across the world. We are joined by Karl Eicher, AIA and Mia Austin, who both traveled to Japan as recipients of the 2020 Robert Saemisch Prize and the 2023 Sean Murphy Prize, respectively, and learn how their lives were impacted by the experience.
