The Copper
Development Association and the Canadian Copper & Brass Development Association announced the winners of its joint 2009 North
American Copper in Architecture Awards.
Recipients were judged by a panel of experts
on overall building design, integration of copper systems, installation, and
excellence in innovation or historic restoration. Thirty-four entries were
received.
“We continue to see copper being used in
various building projects throughout North America because of its durability,
longevity and lasting beauty,” said Andy Kireta Jr., the Copper Development
Association’s vice president for building construction. “We received so many
great entries that it made judging this year’s awards program a difficult
task. We’re proud that copper remains the metal of choice by architects
in new building construction and renovation, in both interior and exterior
applications.”
