Idaho Design Awards Program is designed to encourage excellence in architecture, to elevate the public consciousness of great design and commitment to service, which contributes to the advancement of the profession and the built environment. The program recognizes outstanding achievements in architecture and design of Idaho individuals, firms and project teams.
This year the award recipients were selected by a three-member jury who reviewed 36 projects for demonstrating exceptional design and superior work of architecture. Additionally, the jury evaluated whether designs are sustainable, affordable, durable, innovative, socially impactful, meeting client needs as well as addressing the natural and built contexts.
