Over 130 buildings and urban plans from a shortlist of over 400 projects have won 2020 American Architecture Awards in a competition organized by The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
Boise State’s Center for the Visual Arts is among them.
The CVA is one of 11 winners in the Culture and Museums category. Its designer, HGA, submitted the building for consideration.
“This tremendous award confirms the Center for the Visual Arts project achieved two vital goals,” said Kathleen Keys, interim director of the School of the Arts. “The creation of a world class art research, teaching and learning facility, and simultaneously a brilliant work of architecture and design. The CVA mirrors Boise State’s commitment to the arts and significantly impacts the regional landscape with remarkable and dazzling contemporary architecture.”
