ROSSETTI’s David Richards Elevated to AIA College of Fellows

Detroit, MI – March 9, 2016: David Richards, FAIA, COO, and Principal at ROSSETTI has been elevated to the College of Fellows by the American Institute of Architects (AIA) for his Practice Management expertise. Richards is the third principal at the firm to receive this honor.

The 2016 Fellows will be honored at an investiture ceremony at the 2016 National AIA Convention and Design Exposition in Philadelphia this May.

Of the 80,000 AIA members, there are fewer than 2,700 distinguished with the honor of fellowship and honorary fellowship. The honor is awarded to members who have made significant contributions to architecture and society and who have achieved a standard of excellence in the profession, both individually and on a national level.
