The American Institute of Architects has revealed the winners of the 2019 Institute Honor Awards for Architecture, which recognizes the best contemporary architecture completed by architects licensed in the USA. The winners list this year includes a diverse range of projects, from BIG's converted WWII bunker to an affordable housing complex in New Orleans by OJT.
