Juried by AIA|LA
These projects are all successful in their own right. Each demonstrates the potential to suggest new futures for practice and design. Aesthetically fulfilling work—special-looking structures with novel design concepts, exquisite details, or enticing materiality—caught our eye. Other criteria we sought involved values and ideals found in those projects that went the extra mile to serve communities and meet users’ needs with unique solutions, restraint, and refinement.
