A. The architect shall be internationally recognized and have earned a respectable reputation in both the design and visual art communities and have exhibited their work in major regional, national or international museums.
B. When reviewing architecture as art, the underlying concept of the architecture shall be expressive as more than mere utilitarian architecture.
