CDA Launches Architectural Awards Program
A North American architectural awards program has been launched by the Copper Development Association (CDA), in conjunction with the Canadian Copper & Brass Development Association (CCBDA) to recognize and promote innovative uses and sound installation techniques of architectural copper and copper alloys in building projects across the U.S. and Canada.This program is intended to increase public awareness and promote excellence in architectural copper design for buildings constructed during the past five years. Award submissions divide into two categories: Historic Restoration and New Construction. Three winners in each category will be honored with commemorative plaques and given industry recognition for their projects.
Members of the CDA and CCBDA Building Construction Architectural Team reviewed nearly 50 submissions throughout the past year. The six finalists will be announced in the spring.
The winning projects will be featured on www.copper.org, the ultimate online resource for information about copper and copper alloys. Cu
