CetraRuddy’s John Cetra Elevated to AIA College of Fellows
A world-leading innovator in multifamily housing architecture, planning and design, John A. Cetra, founder of CetraRuddy, has been elevated to the College of Fellows of American Institute of Architects (AIA), the group’s highest level of membership and most prestigious recognition.
Over his 35-year career and since cofounding his own firm in 1987, Cetra has assembled and led a design practice dedicated to the transformation of urban multifamily housing and residential architecture. He speaks and writes widely on the topic, and has endowed a five-semester housing design studio at a major architecture school. In recent years, Cetra’s work and firm have been inducted into a design hall of fame and acclaimed as “visionaries forging the city’s future” and for the “minirevolution” embodied by recent new tower designs.
