AIA|DC Blog

For 39 years, AIA|DC and Washingtonian magazine have co-sponsored an awards competition that recognizes excellence in residential design throughout the Washington metropolitan region. The competition is open exclusively to registered architects.

Eligible projects represent single family, multifamily, or mixeduse residential buildings that characterize new construction, remodelings, additions, or adaptive reuse. Specialized housing such as senior living centers, dormitories, and emergency shelters for natural disasters may also be considered, as well as projects with universal design principles. The Washingtonian Residential Design Awards recognize residential projects, regardless of size or classification, on the basis of excellence in total design, including aesthetics, programmatic response and sustainability.

We are pleased to welcome our 2020 jury:

Cary Bernstein, AIA - Cary Bernstein Architect, San Francisco, CA
Michael D. Frederick, AIA - Frederick + Frederick Architects, Beaufort, South Carolina
David Webber, AIA - Webber + Studio Architects, Austin TX

The Jury met on July 13th, 2020 and the following projects were awarded:
