The annual student design awards program has concluded. It yielded many really innovative projects from the architecture students in our region. The jury was composed of outstanding AIAIC emerging professionals, Tessy Lopez (HMC), Candace Luckett (Ruhnau Clarke), and Daniela Martinez (Ruhnau Clark). The works below were selected as the best in category based upon graphic communication, clear concept approach, and design skill. The design awards were supported by a generous grant from the HMC Architects Designing Futures Foundation. First place awards receive a $750 prize and second awards receive $250. Congratulations!!
