BNIM’s Eleven COTE Top Ten Projects

BNIM’s Eleven COTE Top Ten Projects

As a founding member of the AIA Committee on the Environment (COTE) and the establishment of the AIA COTE Top Ten Awards, we are continually thrilled by the quality of projects and number of designers committed to building in a similar manner, with a focus on performance metrics as a major driver of design excellence. The annual awards program, which AIA calls “the best-known recognition program for sustainable design excellence,” launched in 1997. Of the 130 architecture firms that have won at least one award to date, only 29 have done so more than once, and only 17 have won three or more times.1 As of 2019, BNIM has received 10 COTE Top Ten Awards and one COTE Top Ten PLUS Award.
