The Virginia Society's Awards for Excellence in Architecture recognize outstanding design, built and unbuilt. Also known as the Design Awards, the program is juried by a team of esteemed practitioners. No specific number of awards is set, and the program is open to all categories of building as well as interiors projects. Awards certificates are presented at the Virginia Society's annual conference each November, Architecture Exchange East. Click here to download an entry form.
Entry forms due: 5 p.m., July 18, 2008
Submission packets due: 5 p.m., Aug. 15, 2008
Eligibility: Built and Unbuilt Work
All entries must be the work of licensed architects who practice in Virginia or are members of the Virginia Society of the American Institute of Architects (including Associates). If participants are not VSAIA members, they must have a physical office within the Commonwealth to be eligible. The location of projects is not restricted, but any built works submitted for consideration must have been completed after January 1, 2003. Unbuilt works also will be considered for recognition. Unbuilt projects must be work commissioned by a client, as opposed to theoretical or hypothetical works completed in the mode of research or academic training.
Three categories, three juries
This year marks two big changes in the structure of the awards. First, the submission categories themseves will be Architecture, Interiors, and Preservation. Second, each category will be judged by an independent jury.
Jury Chairs
Architecture: Julie VandenBerg Snow, FAIA
Julie Snow Architects, Minneapolis, Minnesota
Interiors: Kendall Wilson, AIA
Envision Design, Washington, D.C.
Preservation: Joseph Dye Lahendro, AIA
