Are you creative? Innovative? You could win!

The American Residential Design Awards (ARDA) is the AIBD’s premier award program exhibiting design excellence in the residential building industry.

Be spotlighted as one of the nation’s most creative and innovative residential designers, builders, remodelers, architects, developers, land planners, and interior designers.

ARDA is an awards program, not a design competition. Therefore, entries are not grouped in square footage or project value classifications. Judging is conducted by a panel of residential design and construction experts and is based on the quality of the entry and not compared to others in a category. However, one or more ARDA winners may be recognized as the overall best in their specific category.

All residential industry professionals are eligible to enter individual or collaborative projects. Entries previously submitted to ARDA are still eligible, provided they haven’t yet won recognition in the same category. Entries may be entered in more than one category (e.g., Custom Homes and Green Design), and all completed projects are eligible regardless of their completion date.

Would this be your first time entering? It can seem a little daunting. Before you register, build your confidence by clicking the image below and checking out a sample entry form. It's good to know what you need so you can budget the time and resources.

P.S. Looking for some tips on how to put together a winning entry? We’ve prepared a series of video tutorials. It’s packed with information and resources from ARDA judges themselves!

The series sells for $150. Access is included with just one ARDA entry. After registering, an email with a discount code will be sent to add the videos to your educational library.

An ARDA is the most prestigious award in the residential design industry…at least, we think so. With this course bundle, you can learn everything you need to know about how to win one. With this information, you’ll be able to stand out from your competition and prove that your designs are the best in the business.
