SEATTLE, WA — The American Institute of Architects has elevated DLR Group Principal Erica Loynd to the 2021 College of Fellows. The honor was awarded to 102 members who have made significant contributions to the architecture profession.

“Erica is an exceptional leader at every level of the industry — within DLR Group, in her local and regional AIA chapters, and at the national AIA leadership level with the Academy of Architecture for Justice Knowledge Community,” said DLR Group CEO Griff Davenport, FAIA.

Nationally recognized for planning and design of justice and government projects, her portfolio of work has resulted in over 5.25 million total square feet of space and over $1.7 billion of construction value in justice and civic projects.

“She is a strong advocate and ambassador for DLR Group, championing justice architecture that leads to healing, equity, and transformation of individuals and communities,” said DLR Group Senior Principal Darrell Stelling, AIA, who leads the firm’s global Justice+Civic studios.

The AIA fellowship program is developed to elevate architects who have achieved a standard of excellence in the profession and made a significant contribution to architecture and society on a national level. Prospective candidates must have at least 10 years of AIA membership and demonstrated influence by promoting the aesthetic, scientific, and practical efficiency of the profession; promoting the science and art of planning and building by advancing the standards of architectural education, training, or practice; coordinating the building industry and profession of architecture through leadership in the AIA or other related organization; or advancing the living standards of people through improved environments.

She has successfully led the design and planning for projects including the Skagit County Community Justice Center in Mount Vernon, Washington; the Oregon Youth Authority MacLaren Youth Campus in Woodburn, Oregon; and the City of Tukwila Justice Center in Tukwila, Washington.

“We’re fortunate to have Erica as part of the firm. Her commitment to mentoring the next generation of architects is unmatched,” said DLR Group Senior Principal Scott Kruse, AIA, who manages operations in the Pacific Northwest.
