The firm has exhibited extensively worldwide, including the Museum of Contemporary Art in Monterrey, Mexico, the XI St. Petersburg World Economic Forum in Russia and the Venice Biennale. Current commissions include a new vision for Rutgers University’s College Avenue and Livingston campuses. Construction is under way for the High Line Hotel in New York City and Acapulco’s Government Center.

Norten, Hon. FAIA, was born in Mexico City, where he graduated from the Universidad Iberoamericana with a degree in architecture in 1978. He received a master of architecture degree from Cornell University in 1980. Norten’s projects have received numerous awards, including a National Institute Honor Award in 2009 from the American Institute of Architects (AIA) for the Orange County Great Park, and the Excellence in Architecture and Design Award by PODER, Boston. The work of the firm has been published widely and has been the focus of several monographs. Norten has taught and lectured internationally and has held the Miller Chair at the University of Pennsylvania since 1998.
