Winnipeg's Michael Acht has won a Canada Council prize for up-and-coming architects. Worth $34,000, the Prix de Rome in Architecture for Emerging Practitioners is awarded annually to a recent, exceptional graduate of one of 10 accredited architecture schools across the country. The prize money allows winners to study and research particular design styles around the world, according to the type of practice they wish to pursue, and to intern with an architecture firm of international stature.
