We are honored that our Northeastern University Interdisciplinary Science and Engineering Complex is one of the four finalists for the Boston Society of Architects/AIA (BSA) Harleston Parker Medal. This annual award seeks to recognize “the single most beautiful building or other structure” built in the metropolitan Boston area.
Each year a jury selects one building to receive this honor. In addition, the BSA opens the vote to the public. The People’s Choice vote is now open! Check it out and cast your vote. Visit the buildings for yourselves or stop by the BSA Space and check out the exhibit showcasing the four finalists which includes model replicas of each project.
Flow and movement define the form language of this building, which was awarded through an international design competition. Dynamic movement systems permeate the project, expand a campus and bridge two Boston neighborhoods. This cutting-edge facility defines a new academic and social hub for students and allows the University to compete as a premier research institution.

The winner for both awards will be announced at the 7th BSA Design Awards Gala on Thursday, January 18, 2018.
