There are three categories: Honor Awards, Merit Awards and Citations. Take a look at the AIA Birmingham Chapter’s 2018 award winners for residential design and stay tuned for the 2019 Design Awards on June 10!

Stained black with a black metal roof, the exterior of Cabin Noir blends unassumingly
into the bosky shoreline of Lake Martin. In contrast, the interior is light and bright showcasing a collection of art while also providing multiple framed views of nature’s own art. This home built by Classic Homes was featured in our March/April issue so you can tour it here.
