AIA FORT WORTH EXCELLENCE IN ARCHITECTURE AWARDS
PROGRAM
The AIA Fort Worth Excellence in Architecture Awards
program seeks to recognize design excellence by its members and
students, and to promote public interest in architectural excellence.
Eligibility is limited to members of the AIA Fort
Worth Chapter (AIAFW). Students currently enrolled in accredited Texas
colleges or universities may enter in a separate awards program
sponsored by the AIAFW.
Submissions must be executed in an office within the
jurisdiction of the AIA Fort Worth Chapter. Where one Architect is not
the sole author, all participants substantially contributing to the
design of the project must be given credit.
All entries must have been completed after January 1,
1998. The Design Awards Committee reserves the right to disqualify any
entry that does not comply with the eligibility requirements.
All projects will be evaluated on excellence in
design. The jurors are charged to make such awards as they recognize and
deem proper, regardless of category, project size, or budget.

in a standard carousel slide tray enclosed in a standard carousel box

drawing and/or image slides that give the jury a complete understanding

Categories
The 2003 Excellence in Architecture Program entries
may be submitted in the following categories:
General Design Project The design architect may
enter this category which includes all design projects: architecture,
urban design, interiors, historic restoration, adaptive reuse,
furniture, graphics and details.
Collaborative Project In recognition of the
considerable contribution to our built environment that is made by the
entire team on joint venture projects, this category is open to our
Chapter Members who perform the services of 'Architect of Record', where
the Design Architect is not a member of AIA Fort Worth.
Un-built Project This category recognizes works
which, although not constructed, reflect the quality of architectural
thought by its designer. Un-built entries must have been intended for
construction. Completion date requirement is waived for this category.
Student Project Entries in this category will
require digital submissions and therefore will be solicited separately.
