Autorenporträt
Eddie M. Jones, AIA, NCARB / Founder (1979)It was morning, June 8, 1979. Instead of leaving for his day job with the oldest firm in Arizona, Eddie calmly stepped outside his home and glued eleven letters beside the door. So began JONES STUDIO: in the spare bedroom, leaking roof, no money, and one brave client. Five years later Eddie's younger brother, Neal, joined him, completing their childhood dream of work-ing together and forever changing the scale of the practice. Forty plus years forward, Eddie's persistence and innovation have expanded the palette of materials and methods available throughout Arizona. His long-standing implementation of sustainability and environmental design, matched with an extraordinary sensitivity to the factors that create space, have made better human experiences and better architecture. Under Eddie Jones' leadership, Jones Studio has received 222 design awards including a National AIA and a GSA Design Excellence Honor for the Mariposa Land Port of Entry in Nogales, Arizona. In 2018 Eddie was awarded the AIA Arizona's Architects Medal, the highest honor an individual practi-tioner of architecture can receive in the state. Eddie is a 2004 recipient of the Melvin R. Lohmann Medal (for career achievement in architecture) from his alma mater, Oklahoma State University. The Lohmann Medal is the highest honor bestowed on a graduate of the College of Engineering, Architecture, and Technology. Soon after, Eddie also became an inductee of the College of Engineering, Architecture, and Technology Hall of Fame. Although state rivals, the University of Oklahoma College of Architecture named Eddie the Bruce Goff Chair in 1999. For the fiftieth anniversary of the iconic Progressive Architecture Awards, he was specially selected to be a member of the esteemed jury. Eddie was appointed in 2007 to the GSA Design Excellence Peer Review. He was named a Found-ing Board of Governors member by The School of Architecture at Taliesin in 2017. He is very active in Arizona Forward, Arizona's premier organization for promoting sustainable design. Eddie also hosts many community events at the new office building, completed in 2016 to serve as a model of sustainability in desert environments. There are currently 40 books, 227 magazines and journals, 29 TV shows, various radio programs, one Hollywood movie and one documentary film including the Studio's works. Recently, Eddie Jones realized his day job was again with one of the oldest firms in Arizona. Marilu Knode is a curator of contemporary global art living in St. Louis.
