Design Green Awards  
2011 SPONSORS


"You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete."
- R. Buckminster Fuller

Design Green is a competition to recognize Southern California projects that integrate exceptional design with new high performance standards for sustainability, LEED certified for their effectiveness, while redefining the architectural landscape. This year's jury drew on the insights nationally recognized design, theory and sustainability leaders from the United States. The jury met virtually this year to review an outstanding submission of projects, and selected the following four to represent the best in design and sustainable solutions.

The Design Green Awards were presented by Erin McConahey at the AIA/LA Awards on October 26. We thank AIA/LA including Design Green as part of their program again this year, and extend special thanks to our AFLA partners and Design Green sponsors whose support make this program possible.
