RALEIGH, N.C. - July 1, 2013 - PRLog -- (Raleigh, NC) – Frank Harmon, FAIA, founder and principal of Frank Harmon Architect PA (http://www.frankharmon.com), a North Carolina firm well-known for its modern, sustainable, and regionally appropriate design, will serve as a juror for the American Institute of Architects (AIA) 2013 Religious Art & Architecture Design Awards (http://faithandform.com/) program when the jury meets in Charlotte, NC,  July 10-12, 2013.
Frank Harmon is a veteran juror and jury chair for design awards programs across the nation, but this will be his first term on this particular jury.

"Of all our clients, churches have the greatest stake in the future,” Harmon said recently. “For that reason, they see a moral imperative to build sustainably."

The Annual Religious Art and Architecture Design Awards program is co-sponsored by Faith & Form Magazine and the Interfaith Forum on Religion, Art and Architecture (IFRAA), an AIA Knowledge Community. Faith & Form was established in 1967 as the Journal of the IFRAA, a nonprofit editorial service for the professional, religious, and lay communities.

The Awards program was founded in 1978 with the goal of honoring the best in architecture, liturgical design, and art for religious spaces. The program offers three primary categories for awards: Religious Architecture, Liturgical/Interior Design, Sacred Landscape, and Religious Arts.

Harmon himself received a 2010 IFRAA/Faith & Form award for the thoroughly sustainable Sunday school addition (http://frankharmon.com/projects/liturgical/circular-congr...) he designed for the Circular Congregational Church in Charleston, South Carolina.
