Start the new year right! The eighth annual AZ Awards is now open for submissions. Celebrating the best design and architecture around the world, the AZ Awards provides an international platform for both emerging and established architects, landscape architects, designers, students, clients and manufacturers. This is the ultimate opportunity to present completed work and concepts that stand out for innovative design, environmental or social benefit, or for being simply delightful. To give your exceptional projects their proper due, we’ve assembled a panel of expert design practitioners to evaluate submissions and select the finalists and winners. Keep an eye out for the jury announcement, coming soon.

The jury’s top selections will be published in Azure’s annual AZ Awards Issue, on newsstands in June 2018. Winners and finalists receive extensive exposure through our magazine and its online channels, as well as through the substantial reach of our media partners. Besides elevating your own profile, when you step into the spotlight at the AZ Awards Gala in Toronto in June, you’ll also raise public awareness for your firm and your clients.

Submission to the 2018 AZ Awards is open until Tuesday, February 20, 2018. (The early-bird deadline is February 1, 2018). For more information, and to enter the awards, visit awards.azuremagazine.com
