The Brick Industry Association has opened entries for the international 2022 Brick in Architecture Awards, featuring a new category for thin brick projects.
All submissions must use clay brick as the project’s primary building material. Entrants must be either an architect or designer employed by an architectural, design-build or landscaping design firm.
Per the competition rules, eligible projects include any work of architecture completed since Jan. 1, 2017, in which new clay brick products comprise the predominant exterior building or paving material (over 50%) including face or hollow brick, building brick, thin brick, paving brick, glazed brick, structural glazed facing tile, new clay brick products in special shapes and/or a combination of these.
An overall Craftsmanship Award will honor a mason or team of masons with exceptionally artful or unique installation.
The winners will be judged by peers in December and announced next January.
Entries must be submitted online by Nov. 1.
