The ten winners were announced yesterday, coinciding with Earth Day. This year marks the 25th iteration of the awards that were created in 1997 by the AIA and COTE. As noted in recent award years, with sustainable design trends firmly rooted in architectural practice the metrics for the COTE Top Ten have shifted from "predicted performance" to "actual performance," while still maintaining design quality as a determining factor. That change happened in 2017, when a Top Ten Plus designation, for "projects with exemplary actual performance and post-occupancy lessons" was added; no such Plus winner is highlighted this year.
