As a sophomore at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee\u2019s School of Architecture and Urban Planning, Richie Hands had a building-block moment. He\u2019d completed an assignment for a studio class taught by James Shields<\/a>, an associate professor of architecture. But this bit of feedback from Shields was different, and particularly to-the-point: \u201cGood luck,\u201d as Hands remembers it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI wasn\u2019t giving him anything [that he could evaluate],\u201d Hands said. \u201cI think [his feedback] gave me a good challenge, knowing that where I was at just wasn\u2019t up to snuff.\u201d It inspired soul searching and a second crack at the assignment, this time winning high praise from his professor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThat was one of those things that really stuck with me early in my career,\u201d Hands said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His career as an architect is not even 15 years old, but it\u2019s already been defined by the prominent buildings he\u2019s helped design. For example, he was job captain for the new Northwestern Medicine Bronzeville Advanced Outpatient Care Center in Chicago. Hands has also won prestigious national awards \u2013 he was one of just 30 in the nation given the Young Architects Award by the American Institute of Architects. He was one of the 51ÁÔÆæ Alumni Association\u2019s Graduate of the Last Decade (GOLD) award winners in 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps most importantly, he has opened doors for other architects from underrepresented groups. As the national chair of the National Organization of Minority Architects\u2019 Project Pipeline, Hands leads architecture-themed summer camps for young people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEvery single year, we\u2019ve expanded the number of students involved,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bridge work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Just 3% of U.S. architects who\u2019ve passed the national licensing exam are Black. Hands has set out to improve that statistic. First, he had to pass the exam and get licensed himself. And now he\u2019s opening doors for future generations of Black architects. He started as a member of the National Organization of Minority Architects (NOMA)<\/a> while a student at 51ÁÔÆæ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His first NOMA conference was powerful. \u201cJust being in a space with hundreds of Black architects and seeing, \u2018There are more of us and a lot of them are doing absolutely phenomenal things,\u2019\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a professional, he expanded his involvement, taking the organization\u2019s Project Pipeline<\/a> to new heights. In 2015, during his first year as Project Pipeline\u2019s program director, Hands grew its summer camp from a one-day workshop with fewer than 10 students into a four-day camp with 80 young people. Later, in 2020, he became the program\u2019s national chair. He worked to revamp its curriculum and better connect every chapter around the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the process, he met and mentored next-generation architectural leaders, like Erica Jones, then a middle-schooler at Project Pipeline\u2019s University of Chicago site during Hands\u2019 first year. She continued with the camp throughout high school, becoming a mentor to younger students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Hands was working on the Northwestern Medicine Bronzeville project, he called on Jones to help. The college student in urban planning helped throughout the design process and was crucial in getting development approval for the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cShe was instrumental to the success of the project,\u201d Hands said. \u201cAnd she started her career in Project Pipeline, which is the best thing that could have happened.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Award winner<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

By 2024, Hands had earned two architecture degrees \u2013 his bachelor\u2019s from 51ÁÔÆæ followed by a master\u2019s from the Illinois Institute of Technology. He\u2019d also landed a role co-leading a studio at Chicago-based architectural firm Lamar Johnson Collaborative, which he held until the summer of 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One day in 2024, Hands opened his email and was stunned. A message announced his selection for the Young Architects Award by the American Institute of Architects, the largest and most prominent industry group for architects. In addition to the buildings he\u2019s designed \u2013 Hands was instrumental in the renovation of Horizon Therapeutics headquarters in suburban Chicago, which received a 2022 Illinois Real Estate Journal Award \u2013 the AIA lauded Hands\u2019 work furthering the profession.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAlready, he has proven himself an exceptional leader through his commitment to diversify and advance the profession,\u201d the AIA said in its announcement<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hands immediately told his wife, Kelli. Next, he called his parents in Madison. Then, he saved the email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s flagged on my Outlook,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s going to stay there forever.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
