Our Programs
We educate leaders in the classical architectural tradition and to address the critical issues facing the built environment through research, professional activity and public service.
Our Approach
We embrace the idea that architecture and urbanism do more than merely provide the shelter where we live; they shape the public and private realms in which we inhabit our planet and develop our cultures, economies and futures.
Our Faculty
A distinct group of practicing architects and academics whose areas of expertise include the making of cities and their buildings from antiquity to today.

In conjunction with the Driehaus Prize, this 2023 Henry Hope Reed Award recipient is Adele Chatfield-Taylor, president emerita of the American Academy in Rome, historic preservationist and nonprofit administrator. Her dedication to historic preservation expanded its narrow focus from individual buildings to the stewardship of entire cities. Through education she has cultivated a preservation culture that includes the well-being of citizens.
