Curated by Small Project Design (SPD), a knowledge community within AIA, The Small Project Awards are hosted with a goal to recognize small projects that epitomize highbrow quality work and advance excellence in microscale project designs. Running into its 18th year of felicitating small projects, the program aims at raising cognizance of the multifold contributions by an architect towards every project irrespective of the scope and scale.
The Small Project Awards were awarded across three categories to offer recognition to a wider range of projects of varying sizes and budgets, amplifying the exemplary design excellence achieved by modest projects. The listed Categories as per AIA were as follows.
Category 1 - Small project construction, an architectural object, work of environmental art, or an architectural design element that costs up to $150,000 in construction.
Category 2 - Small project construction that could cost up to $1,500,000 in construction.
Category 3 - Small project construction, an architectural object, work of environmental art, or an architectural design that is under 5,000 square feet.
