The Aspire States (AIA Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina, and South Carolina) hold their annual Design Awards to recognize a wide range of architecture throughout the Southeast, which focuses on improving the quality of built environments in the communities they are of service to. The Aspire Design Awards highlight the various range of projects within the region. The AIA believes that awards programs should select and recognize honorees that have been elevated on the quality of their architectural practices, established standard of excellence that can be a measure of performance for all architects, and that communicates to the public how important design is.
