The Brick Industry Association has opened entries for the 2024 Brick in Architecture Awards, an international design competition featuring fired-clay brick. Entries are due by Nov. 1. Projects will compete for a Best in Class, Gold, Silver or Bronze award. An overall Craftsmanship Award will honor one project recognizing an individual mason or team for exceptionally artful or unique installation.
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.
Eligible projects include any work of architecture completed since Jan. 1, 2019, 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.
The winners will be judged by peers in December and announced early next year. Offering extensive exposure, winning projects are featured through BIA’s website, social media channels, a press release and are promoted to the architect and design community throughout the year.
