CODAawards
The internationally acclaimed CODAawards celebrate the projects that most successfully integrate commissioned art into interior, architectural, or public spaces. Commissioned Art Matters - and the CODAawards celebrate this. The CODAawards program honors the individuals and the teams whose collective imaginations create the public and private spaces that inspire us every day.
Artists, Designers, Architects, Public Art Administrators, Art Consultants, Industry Resources, Technologists, Cross-Disciplinary Creators, Landscape Architects: Everyone involved in the collaborative process of creating artful spaces are encouraged to enter.
Jurying is underway - Mark your calendars for June 17 to see the Jury's Top 100 and vote for your favorite project during public voting. Public voting is open to everyone, including you, the CODAworx community of design + art professionals, the general public, and design + art fans around the world, to choose two People’s Choice winners based on the commissioned art projects you love.

Criteria
Entries are reviewed by a jury of thought leaders in the design, architecture, and art worlds. Our jurors evaluate each entry on three unique criteria across ten categories:
- The integration of commissioned artwork into site-specific projects, completed since January 2017
- The strength of the collaborative process among the creative teams, commissioners, and industry resources
- Each winning entry will blend the art and design seamlessly to create a place as art, rather than a place with art
