NADAAA wins a 2014 Holcim Acknowledgement award for the University of Toronto Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape and Design.  Congratulations to the entire project team!  Text from the Holcim website:

The proposed building provides a new home for the John H Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape & Design on the site of a culturally significant nineteenth century structure.

The project’s basic objectives are to rehabilitate existing urban, landscape, and architectural elements – and, to demonstrate the university’s aim to foreground sustainability as part of its pedagogic program via state-of-the-art construction materials and energy systems.
