Winning Entries
Award winners will be contacted on Tuesday May 20th following the jury's deliberations. Awards will be formally presented to the architects and owners of winning projects during the annual Design Awards Gala to be held on Saturday June 7th, 2008 at the Katzen Arts Center at American University.
One certificate each is provided to the architect and owner. Additional award certificates can be ordered at $25 apiece by contacting the chapter house by Tuesday May 27th.
Winning entrants shall provide the following to the AIA Northern Virginia Chapter office by Thursday, June 5th:
One 24" x 24" panel, 1/2" thick, illustrating the winning entry. This panel will be displayed at the Awards Banquet and elsewhere at the Chapter’s discretion. The Chapter shall retain the panel for three years, after which the entrant may reclaim it. A description of the panel requirements will be provided to each winner.
Winning project binders will be displayed at the June 7th Design Awards Gala. Following the publication of winning projects in the AIA Northern Virginia Chapter newsletter, winning entrants may replace their original submission binder with a copy comprised of high quality reproductions of the originally submitted drawings and photographs. The replacement entry binder and the image CD will remain in the Chapter archives. Acceptance of an award shall constitute an agreement by the entrant to authorize the American Institute of Architects Northern Virginia Chapter to reproduce any of the material described above for publicity purposes related to the awards program, and an agreement to indemnify and hold the Northern Virginia Chapter harmless in connection with such material.
Non-winning entries, not being forwarded to the Fairfax County Exceptional Design Awards, must be reclaimed from the AIA Northern Virginia Chapter office by Monday, June 16. Firms may provide a FedEx or UPS account number on the Registration Form so the Chapter can ship the binders back or binders may be claimed at the Chapter House by the firm or a courier. Unclaimed binders will be thrown away. Although every reasonable precaution shall be taken in handling submitted material, the Northern Virginia Chapter may not be held responsible for the loss of, or damage to, any submission or display panel.
