“Architecture of Pluralism”

The language of architecture speaks in different idioms, but it also provides powerful connections, resonating in landscapes both urban and rural, global and local, monumental and humble, secular and spiritual. An “Architecture of Pluralism” is one that will encourage all of us to listen to one another and to learn from one another, with a deep sense of humility and a realization that diversity itself is a gift of the Divine.

The Royal Architectural Institute of Canada awards Mawlana Hazar Imam the 2013 Gold Medal, their highest distinction, at the Delegation of the Ismaili Imamat in Ottawa, Canada.
