2019 AIA Illinois Honor Awards:
A Celebration of Better Illinois Communities by Design
Welcome to the submission process for the 2019 AIA Illinois Honor Awards. We are the only awards competition in the nation to focus on projects and people that closely adhere to the AIA’s Principles of Livable Communities. We encourage you to submit your projects and nominate yourself or your peers who have bettered Illinois communities through architecture.
All nominations should arrive electronically before the
deadline of 5 p.m. CST on Friday, April 19 2019.
Submit your nomination today by selecting "Join Now" below.
The AIA Illinois Honor Awards recognize people and projects epitomizing the contributions of the architecture profession, the transformative power of design, and the dedication of individuals to service and excellence. All award winners have positively impacted citizens throughout the state of Illinois by helping create communities in which people are drawn to live and work, and to live healthier and happier.
The Juries
A jury of three esteemed architecture colleagues from throughout the county, appointed by the AIA Illinois President will review the nominations for Design Awards. Service Award honorees will be selected by the current board of directors. The AIA Illinois President serves as an ex-officio member of both juries and decisions of the juries are final. Nominations that are unsuccessful each year will be carried forward one year to be reviewed by a subsequent jury. An updated submission will be considered “new” and incur a fee.
