Criteria

Entries are reviewed by a jury of thought leaders in the design, architecture, and art worlds. Our jurors evaluate each entry on three unique criteria across ten categories:

• The integration of commissioned artwork into site-specific projects, completed in the last 3 years

• The strength of the collaborative process among the creative teams, commissioners, and industry resources

• The ability of a project to blend the art and design seamlessly to create a place as art, rather than a place with art
