It is a proud moment for IAP to announce that Yasmeen Lari, country’s prominent Architect and one of the founding members of IAP has been awarded the Royal Institute of British Architects’ Royal Gold Medal for 2023 in recognition of the humanitarian work “she has undertaken since her retirement”.
Lari, who was Pakistan’s first female architect, is the second woman to receive the accolade in her own right following Zaha Hadid. She was recognized for her socially conscious work and for creating homes for the country’s most marginalized communities following her retirement from formal practice.
