DENVERThe American Institute of Architects (AIA) announced the winners of the 2017 AIA Colorado Awards, in Denver on Friday, Aug. 18. The AIA Colorado Honor Awards recognize firms and individuals who are setting examples in both design and leadership in our state.

“The Honor Awards are a representation of the highest standards of professionalism, integrity and expertise in our industry. Each of this year’s winners is not only dedicated to achieving quality design of the built environment, but to elevating the profession of architecture for generations to come,” said Cathy Rosset, Executive Vice President/CEO of AIA Colorado.

In addition, the AIA awards also recognized 28 Colorado projects for design excellence. Judged by architects from across the nation, the winning projects were recognized for build, materials, aesthetics, space and design.

“The diverse and beautiful work of all of the firms who put their hearts and souls into creating magnificent works of architecture are truly spectacular to see. We are honored to recognize these Colorado architecture firms for exemplifying the highest standards of professionalism, integrity and design,” said Cathy Rosset, executive vice president/CEO of AIA Colorado.
