Ken Roberts was a Louisiana native and an architect who worked for the firm Jurors Citation Craycroft-Lacy & Partners during the late 1960’s in Dallas. He then left to join forces These citations allow the jurors to independently select any student or professional with Dick Savage and later with Clutts & Parker to form Iconoplex, Inc in 1973. As his piece that they personally wish to see recognized. former boss Jack Craycroft recalls, Roberts was “a great designer and even better architect”. In addition, Roberts produced numerous immaculate ink perspective drawings of small residential and commercial projects that testified to an impressive facility for architectural rendering by hand. With the departure of his star employee, Craycroft felt a compelling need to show appreciation for skilled delineators. He thus came up with the idea of creating an annual delineation competition and exhibit during his tenure as president of AIA Dallas in 1973. The following year, AIA Dallas President Jim Clutts handed his colleague Ken Roberts the task of organizing the very first delineation event. Not long after the successful inaugural event, Roberts’ chronic kidney problems suddenly ended his life at the age of 34. The AIA Dallas Executive Committee promptly renamed the annual delineation event after its first organizer, who was highly esteemed for the wide breadth of his abilities and admired for his enthusiasm and energy in the face of his declining health. - Julien Meyrat, AIA 4 5 Past Winners 6 7 Traveling Exhibitions The finalists and winners of KRob are featured in an annual exhibition in December and January at the Architecture and Design Exchange in Dallas, TX.
