Below is the Intent to Enter form for the 2017 AIA Washington Council Civic Design Awards. The Civic Design Awards program this year is open to firms with offices located in Washington and to firms with offices in the AIA Northwest & Pacific Region. There are two categories for entry: One for Washington firms only, and one for all firms within the Northwest & Pacific Region. Washington firms may enter their projects in both categories. There is also a two-tier entry fee: a $100/project fee for firms of 6 or fewer employees, and a $200/project fee for firms with more than 6 employees. (Yes, 6 is an arbitrary number.)

PLEASE NOTE, BY ENTERING A PROJECT IN OUR AIA NORTHWEST & PACIFIC CATEGORY YOU ARE NOT ENTERING YOUR PROJECT IN THE AIA NORTHWEST & PACIFIC REGION DESIGN AWARDS.  That is a separate and distinct award program and must be entered separately.  You may enter the Region’s awards program here:  http://www.aianorthwest-pacific.com/2016-design-awards/

To complete the entry form you must:

  • First select whether your are a small firm (6 employees and under) or a large firm (over 6 employees)
  • Determine how many project you wish to enter and enter that quantity in the “Quantity of Project to Enter” box (use the scroll at the right hand side)
  • After you entered the number of projects you wish to enter, you will see boxes entitled “Project Name” (with numbers 1,2,3,4, and 5 depending on the number of projects). Fill in these boxes with the name by which you want your project identified.
  • Below the “Project Name” box you will find a “Choose Category for Entry” box. If you are not a Washington based firm you must select the “Northwest & Pacific Region” category for all your projects. If you are a Washington based firm you have two options: to either enter your projects only in the “Washington only” category or to enter one or more of your projects in “Both”. Please note there is a separate fee for entering the project in each category.
  • Now provide the “Contact Information” requested and hit submit which will take you to the payment pages.

Payment must be made before you receive your unique project identifying number(s).
