The Trumbauer Awards

The Philadelphia Chapter of the Institute of Classical Architecture & Art is excited to announce the inaugural Trumbauer Awards, to be bestowed on Wednesday, November 9. The awards program recognizes the work of individuals and firms to preserve and advance the classical tradition in this region. It is named for internationally renowned, native Philadelphian architect Horace Trumbauer (1868-1938) and recognizes contemporary classical projects that express the breadth and inclusiveness celebrated in Trumbauer’s expansive work.

Barbara Eberlein, President Emeritus of the Philadelphia Chapter of the ICAA, notes, “Horace Trumbauer’s work celebrates the comprehensive vocabulary of classical and traditional architecture by exploring beauty in numerous aesthetic styles. In developing the Trumbauer Awards, we honor contemporary practitioners whose work displays the same spirit of invention and expression.”
