SAIA STARS RECEIVE LIFE MEMBERSHIP
 
 
Three members of the SA Institute of Architects received Life Membership for the extraordinary contributions they have made to the Profession and the Institute. Certificates of life membership were presented to Stan Segal, Chair of Practice, and Past Presidents Llewellyn van Wyk and Jan Ras at a dinner held in Johannesburg on Wednesday 21 February. The event was hosted by the President, Hassan Asmal, assisted by the immediate past President Trish Emmett, and attended by members of the Board.
