Letter from the Chair (Elizabeth Debs)


On behalf of the AIA Housing and Community Development Knowledge Community, I am honored to present the 2021 winners of the American Institute of Architects (AIA) Housing Awards. In recognizing these 2021 award winners, we celebrate not only exemplary projects but also the best practices in the field.

The past year has truly demonstrated that the need for a home of one’s own is the foundation for social equity, health, and civil society. Through the Housing Awards, the AIA elevates outstanding residential design and creates the opportunity to discuss and advance progress in the areas of housing and community development.

Initiated in 2000, the AIA Housing Awards recognize projects that exemplify residential design that is sustainable, responsive, and innovative. The award-winning projects and firms represent a wide array of housing types and architectural practices. Of the total ten winning designs, four are drawn from the one- and two-family custom residences category, one from the one- and two-family production homes category, two from the multifamily housing category, and three from the specialized housing category.

Projects are located in California (3), Illinois, Louisiana, Arkansas, Texas, and Washington (3).

We honor the 2021 Housing Award winners and welcome them as they join a distinguished group of previous award recipients who all contribute significantly to raising the standard for excellence in housing design.

This publication is a fantastic resource for those interested in best practices in housing and outstanding design.

Many thanks to the dedicated jury and to everyone who submitted a project for their time and thoughtfulness.

Congratulations!
