2014 Spotlight Award + Lecture: 5468786

RDA’s sixth annual Spotlight Award was presented to 5468786. Founders Johanna Hurme and Sasa Radulovic visited Houston on Tuesday, September 9, to accept the award and present a lecture at The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.

The Winnipeg-based firm, founded in 2007, takes its name from its Canadian business registration number. The wit embodied in that choice is just one of the qualities recognized by the Spotlight Award Committee: “We are mightily impressed with the caliber of architecture produced in just seven years. [We] admire the breadth of design investigation, the elegance with which each element is rendered manually, digitally, or physically, and the broadening range of project types, from early-year single-family residences to complex multifamily assemblies to ‘jewel boxes’ in the urban landscape. Hurme and Radulovic are clearly building their young firm into an architectural practice of prominence and distinction.”
