The 2026 Raphael Awards

Traditional Building is delighted to announce Elizabeth Reay of Michael G. Imber Architects as the last of this year’s winners, in the category of Design Orthographic Rendering by Hand.

Her work on the Sufi Complex presents the project with exacting precision, giving flat projection a remarkable sense of depth and atmosphere. Each line reflects the discipline and patience the classical tradition demands.

The program celebrates hand drawing as a vital discipline in architecture and design. All four artists will be featured in the November/December issue and showcased at the Traditional Building Conference in Charleston, South Carolina, November 3–4.

Congratulations to Stephen, Christian, James and Elizabeth. We look forward to seeing you in Charleston.

Bronze patina forms naturally, with no intervention needed.

But in our workshop, we give natural alchemy a helping hand – immersing the bronze in a secret blend that influences the color of the patina.

A process that would take months or even years unfolds in minutes – but it’s never truly ‘finished’. Each piece will deepen in color and character for years to come.

Three powder rooms, one mood. Dark walls, intentional lighting, and details worth lingering on.

A true ranch home is a basecamp for adventure. In the primary suite, French doors open directly to the breeze and rolling hills of the Sabinal River Valley, keeping the landscape close from the moment you wake up.

Collections are often an integral part of the design process. In this Texas Hill Country home, the owner’s collection ranges from centuries-old Italian tables to a fossilized dinosaur bone, giving us pieces with history and personality to design around.

On October 18, Bill will join architects Timothy S. Adams and Douglas Wright at the San Francisco Fall Show for “Building Exceptional Collections for Exceptional Homes,” a conversation with Alisa Carroll about the relationship between architecture, interiors, and the objects we treasure most.

🏆 Trumbauer Tuesdays 🏆 2025 WINNER - Large Architecture (non-residential) - Linda L. Bean Conference Center in Wilmington, DE by Michael G. Imber Architects.

—
Set above the banks of the Hoopes Reservoir and adjacent to a historic 1930s mansion serving as the ISI headquarters, the Linda L. Bean Conference Center provides a rare opportunity to contribute to the landscape of the historic Brandywine Valley. Surrounded by rolling hills and dense forests, the new building takes cues from local vernacular architecture and Georgian details of the existing house that has served as the hub for the organization since 1994.

It was important that the Center take advantage of its site and the views, but also be complementary in its composition and scale, not detracting from the headquarters while meeting the programmatic needs of a new events space that reflects the values of the institute.

The conference center combines a welcoming, residentially-scaled Foyer and a pavilion-like and barrel-vaulted Event Hall to provide flexible public spaces that will host lectures, banquets, and seminars for the students and members of the Intercollegiate Studies Institute, while the Entry Court and Courtyard provide additional outdoor space to be used during both larger public events and their day-to-day operations.

The materiality of the project—including oak flooring harvested from the woods of Maine owned by the name benefactress, an antique King of Prussia marble fireplace surround, decorative iron detailing, slate roofing, cut stone columns, the richly textured reclaimed local field stone, and elegantly detailed oak millwork—tie the project to its landscape, the history of the property, and the rich tradition of American building arts in this region.

We show a lot of the life that will be Wyelea.

Dinners that run long. Children everywhere. Muddy boots. Seasons that give us reasons to do things differently.

The houses are being made for that life, too.

Wyelea’s Design Guild understands that a home can be beautifully considered without being precious. That it should belong to its landscape, not simply sit on it. That materials should get better with time. That craft should endure. And that the best places to live aren’t always inside.

We hope you make a home here. Fill it up. Know where the October light falls and what’s coming up in the garden. Let it collect the evidence of a life well lived.

Different hands. Different voices. One shared idea: make something worth passing on.
