Categories

1. New homes 1,800 square feet (heated space) or smaller.

2. New homes larger than 1,800 square feet.

3. Remodel projects involving structural changes, modernizations or additions.

4. Restoration to preserve historic architecture.

Format

Each entry should be submitted in a standard-size folder or binder, and include:

A cover page listing the owner, builder and designer’s names, addresses and telephone numbers. Also indicate which category you are entering.

Next, a one-page, typed statement of the project goal and site demands, and how they were satisfied. Include completion date.

At least three interior and three exterior photographs (no slides). For renovations and remodels, “before” views are helpful.

Entry fee

Each entry must be accompanied by a check for $10 (payable to The Spokesman-Review) to help cover program costs.
