DESIGN AWARDS COMMITTEE

The Design Awards Committee is a standing committee whose purpose is to conduct a design awards program honoring exceptional design within the Region in conjunction with the Regional Conference.  The committee will arrange for the token of the award, a certificate to be presented to the awardee(s) and appropriate publication of the award to be made. The Awards Committee chair shall be selected by the Senior Director and shall serve a two-year term, regardless of having served a term as a member of the Committee. 

 The Design Awards Program is open to built projects that have been winners of component award programs within the Region during the previous five years prior to the current year that have not received previous Regional awards.  There is an exception to this limitation:  AIA/NW&P Regions members from components which have not had an awards program within the last two years are also eligible to enter.

The purpose of the Design Awards Program is...  “To encourage excellence in architectural design and planning and to provide an avenue through which architects may gain recognition by their peers and the public.  The ultimate goal is to raise the standards of architectural design excellence by both the architectural community and the public.”

A historical file of design awards winners is maintained in the Regional Office.
