2022 Design Exhibit and Awards
The
Polished Apple Award Program recognizes outstanding educational facilities in the state of Washington. The program follows criteria from the Association’s Planning & Design Awards Program and the PNW Region’s Pinnacle Award Program, so as to encourage Chapter projects to also compete at the regional and international levels.
This year, the submittal requirements for the Washington Chapter Polished Apple may include 1 video in the Optional Materials.
This program recognizes learning projects which positively impact teaching and learning and result from a sound planning process reflecting the needs and expectations of the community.
Award Categories
Polished Apple Award: Awarded to the single most distinctive project, which best satisfies the criteria; one winner.
Awards of Merit: These awards recognize exceptional projects that were not the Polished Apple Award winner, but are deserving of recognition according to the criteria. Number of awards is at the Jury’s discretion, if any.
People’s Choice Award: Attendees at the Conference will have the opportunity to vote for the People’s Choice Award. The winner will receive the Merit Award level of recognition.
