Canadian Architect Celebrates Awards at Corkin Gallery

On Tuesday, February 18, Canadian Architect celebrated the winners of its 2019 Awards of Excellence. The awards ceremony and reception were held at the Corkin Gallery, in Toronto’s Distillery District. The 52nd annual Awards of Excellence recognized projects in the design and construction phases, as well as student work. For the first time, the Awards of Excellence also introduced an open call for entries to its architectural photography competition.

The next Awards of Excellence competition will open in summer 2020, with entries due in September, and winners to be published in a special December issue.
