AIA Orange County 25-Year Awards
The test of time is used to single out the executed project that will receive this award. The project must have excellence in function, distinguished execution of its original program and be a highly creative statement measured even by today’s standards. The highest criteria for an architectural solution will be used for this award: in a word... the project should be timeless. The selected project(s) were 25 years or older at the time of the submission.
