The American Institute of Architects is seeking nominations for its annual international Top Ten Green Projects competition. Applications are due January 19.

The Top Ten Green Projects program seeks to identify and recognize the benefits of high performance, sustainable design; to educate the architectural community and the public at large on the increased value that sustainable design provides for developers, building owners and occupants; and to acknowledge architects as experts in the creation of energy conscious and environmentally responsible design solutions.

This program is an international competition open to all architects. Projects may be located anywhere in the world, but must have been designed by an architect licensed in the United States.

Entries submitted may be large or small projects, new construction or renovations, and any project type. Urban and regional design projects are welcome. Projects must have been completed after 1997.
