Winning entries will be announced at the Building Excellence Awards Luncheon on March 19 at the 2008 SIPA Annual Meeting & Conference, in New Orleans, Louisiana. In addition to receiving a customized plaque, competition winners will have their projects posted on the SIPA website, announced in SIPA’s quarterly newsletter, and promoted in press releases to external media. Many of the 2007 Building Excellence Award recipients were featured in Building Systems magazine and eco-structure magazine.
