Learning By Design features the nation’s most engaging and enriching learning environments—and the firms and design teams that created them.

Learning By Design recognizes exemplary educational

facility design, providing education leaders (your potential

clients) across the country with numerous examples of

how the design of the physical space can impact teaching,

programming, academic outcomes, and the environment.

Jury Review Panel and HonorsThe Learning By Design awards program is a blind, peer-reviewed and

scored juried process. Jurors are recommended by the AIA Commitee on

Architecture for Education and the Association for Learning Environments.

All projects deemed qualified by a jury of peers will appear in Learning

By Design as Outstanding Projects and receive special recognition. Top

scoring projects may be recognized as a GRAND PRIZE, CITATION OF

EXCELLENCE or HONORABLE MENTION AWARD.

Innovation: The extent in which the finished design fulfilled project goals by use of innovative, dynamic, and flexible building or site solutions.

Sustainability: How does the project live up to modern energy and environmental-design expectations? What sustainable building practices did it employ; what green building certification did it receive; does the design support a connection to nature?

Next Generation Learning: The manner in which the design supports modern pedagogical practices that shape the student experience and enhance academic activities.

Functional Design/Planning Process: How did the design meet the organization’s strategic goals and bottom line while supporting the needs of the key stakeholders and the fundamental components of contemporary education design?
