Laurie D. Olin

2010 Bybee Prize Recipient: Laurie D. Olin, RLA, FASLA
The Bybee Prize is named in honor of James Daniel Bybee, a long standing member of the Building Stone Institute. It is awarded to an individual for a body of work executed over time and distinguished by outstanding use of natural stone in building or landscape applications. Past winners of this award have included Henry Cobb, Lawrence Halprin, Cesar Pelli, Malcolm Holzman and M. Paul Friedberg. This year’s recipient is an admired addition to this list of celebrated professionals.

Laurie is a distinguished teacher, author, and one of the most renowned landscape architects practicing today. Laurie studied civil engineering at the University of Alaska and pursued architecture at the University of Washington, where Richard Haag encouraged him to focus on landscape. His involvement often marks the signature of OLIN’s distinguished portfolio of projects, which span the history of the studio from Bryant Park in New York City to the Brancusi Ensemble in Romania. Recent projects include Simon and Helen Director Park in Portland and the new Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia

Laurie and his fellow partners at OLIN recently received the 2008 Landscape Design Award from the Smithsonian’s Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum for excellence and innovation in landscape design and dedication to sustainability. Laurie is currently practice professor of Landscape Architecture at the University of Pennsylvania, where he has taught for thirty years, and is former chair of the Department of Landscape Architecture at Harvard University. He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, a Fellow of the American Society of Landscape Architects, and recipient of the 1998 Award in Architecture from the American Academy of Arts and Letters and the Gold Medal from the American Society of Landscape Architects in 2005.
