AIA Bend Section People’s Choice Awards

These awards aim to educate and inspire our fellow citizens by showcasing architecture projects created within the AIA Bend Section area by AIA members, AIA Bend Allied members and Bend-Section-based design professionals. The program is intended to demonstrate to the public the role of the architectural profession in enhancing the built environment.

All submitted projects utilize the AIA’s Framework for Design Excellence as a baseline for detailing each project’s impact on the environment. For built projects, entrants are asked to describe how their project addresses the categories “Design for Integration” and “Design for Discovery”, and two other categories as determined by the submitting firm. For unbuilt projects, they needed to address “Design for Integration” and three other categories.
