The projects were judged by members of CDA's and CCBDA's Building Construction Architectural Team, which includes architectural and copper industry experts. Nearly 50 projects were recommended and approved.
Projects identified for consideration in the North American Copper in Architecture Awards program included universities, houses of worship, government buildings, museums and residential complexes. The program is intended to increase public awareness and promote excellence in architectural copper design for buildings constructed throughout the United States and Canada during the past five years.
The architects, and in some cases the contractors, received replicas of their project on a copper plaque. All of the projects, including photos, are featured in Copper in Architecture Awards section. Cu
