the 2001 business week/architectural record awards [bw/ar] is an annual global awards program recognizing distinguished collaboration and result between clients/architect building teams who use architectural design to achieve strategic goals. the bw/ar awards was created in 1997 to show that 'good design is good business.'
now in its fifth year, the bw/ar award recognizes the very best examples of creative management practices coupled with architectural design. the bw/ar awards showcase the work of architects and clients who, together, are creating the most innovative and successful facilities in the world.
'if this contest is any measure, the awareness of architecture's abilities to expand market share and generate revenue appears to be spreading,' wrote business week editorial page editor bruce nussbaum in the magazine's november 6, 2000 issue. 'it can integrate complex components to create something entirely new and profitable,' he added.
beginning this year, entrants can receive feedback on their submission from the bw/ar awards jury, a first for an awards program of this nature. the feedback option is in response to suggestions from entrants who felt that insight from the jury could help strengthen future submissions. the jury recommendations will cover the entry's business rationale, collaboration, and measurable result as well as the quality/significance of the architectural solution.
jury/criteria a jury of prominent architects and business leaders selects award recipients by evaluating the quality of architect/client collaboration and the extent to which a facility contributes to an organization's bottom line. the jury considers how well the client and architect worked together to meet or exceed goals and the measurable impact the building project had on the client's objectives.
entry rules entrants must submit a mission statement and business rationale describing how the project fits into an organization's overall goals. additionally, entrants describe both the process and results, including measures of how the project's architectural design solution helped achieve those results.
eligibility public and private sector projects completed anywhere in the world since january 1, 1998, are eligible to enter. entries are welcome regardless of project or budget size, including both new construction and renovations/restorations. the jury will determine the number and level of awards depending on the quality of the submissions. winning projects will be published in fall issues of both business week and architectural record.
