The announcement follows years of campaigning by the architecture community for a retroactive Prizker Architecture Prize for Scott Brown alongside Venturi, who was awarded the prize separately in 1991. “There were a lot of people who were really passionate about them getting recognize as a team,” says architect Caroline James, who was present for the announcement in Washington, D.C.
