Julie Vanden Berg Snow ’70 | College of Architecture and Planning Distinguished Alumni Award
Apr 16, 2024
Julie earned a bachelor of architecture and now leads an architectural studio-based practice in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The studio's interest in pragmatic and critical programmatic reflection results in innovative designs that expand the understanding of architectural performance. Design strategies consider how architecture performs within each project's social, cultural, and economic context. The practice has been recognized with numerous awards, including the American Institute of Architects’ 2018 Architecture Firm Award, an honor that recognizes a practice that consistently has produced distinguished architecture for at least 10 years.
Julie has held several visiting professor positions and has taught at the University of Minnesota College of Architecture and Landscape Architecture, where she received the Ralph Rapson Award for Distinguished Teaching. In 2011, she was awarded the Architecture Prize from the American Academy of Arts and Letters.
