2015 AIA Connecticut Design Awards and People’s Choice Awards
DESIGN AWARDS
BUILT AWARDS The program recognizes design excellence in various kinds of
built architectural projects and encourages the inclusion of sustainability in the design
of all built projects. Submissions may be a single building, a related group of
buildings, interior architecture, additions, restorations, or adaptive use projects.
Category 1: Residential Design
Eligibility: Single family residences and/or accessory buildings, new or
remodeled, or any addition. Projects previously submitted to the Alice Washburn
Awards Program may also be submitted to this program.
Category 2: Commercial, Institutional, Educational or Multi-family
Residential Design
Eligibility: Both public and private projects- single buildings, a related group of
buildings forming a single project, interior architecture, and additions/renovations.
Category 3: Preservation
Eligibility: Projects that address design issues related to adaptive use,
rehabilitation, reconstruction or pure restoration. Entries may fall into more than
one category but must be assigned by the entrant to one category only.
UNBUILT AWARDS Unbuilt architectural designs, for which there is no current intent
to build, of any project type, including purely theoretical, visionary projects, with or
without a client.
ARCHITECTURE: THE ENCOMPASSING ART AWARDS A special, inclusive award
that celebrates the multitude of design aspects that underpin the overall building
design. Eligibility includes but is not limited to designs for such details as hardware,
stairways or railings; graphics; lighting or fixtures; furniture; scholarly research or
urban planning analyses; or technical innovations. AIA member entrants in the Built
Design category are entitled to one free of charge submission of a design aspect
from each of their Built projects for this category.
Eligibility: Architects licensed and residing in Connecticut may submit projects
located anywhere; architects whose practice is located outside Connecticut may
submit projects whose site is located in Connecticut. Architectural interns and
students are eligible only for the Unbuilt and the Architecture: the Encompassing Art
categories. Credit must be given to all contributing architectural firms. AIA
membership is not required. The project, or submitted work, must have been
completed after June 30, 2008. “Completed” is defined as “substantial completion” in
accordance with standard AIA documents.
Format / Instructions: Instructions for the Design Awards submissions are
emailed to the designated contact person upon AIA Connecticut’s receipt of the
entry form. Submissions are electronic and in the form of a multi-paged PDF of
photos, drawings and descriptive data, with online project information and
photography release form.
