A diverse group of building projects have been recognized for Excellence in Architectural Design by AIA Kentucky.  According to 2011 Awards Jury Chairman Raymond L. Gindroz, FAIA of Urban Design Associates in Pittsburgh, “The jury was impressed both with the overall high quality of the submittals and the wide range of projects from very small renovations and infill projects to large scale urban complexes.  There also was a great variety of project types, including single family houses, park pavilions, commercial buildings, an arena and civic buildings.

Thirteen projects have been recognized with an award in one of three categories:

·       Five (5) received Honor Awards for projects of high artistic achievement and groundbreaking design;

·       Five (5) received Merit Awards for well-developed and rigorously designed projects, and

AIA

Advocates Sustainable Buildings & Communities

The "Walk the Walk" Campaign was developed to position the AIA in a leadership role in the area of sustainable buildings and communities thereby establishing AIA architects as the people capable of leading the nation into a new era of environmentally-friendly thinking. 

"Walk the Walk" was born from the idea that there is a lot of talk about the future of the planet but not enough action being taken to set us on the right path. At its core,  "Walk the Walk" is an "empowerment" campaign designed to let people know that a course of action is available.
