Coverings is on the hunt for submissions to its 2015 Coverings Installation & Design (CID) Awards, honoring designs and installations of tile and stone. Available to architects, designers, builders, contractors, distributors, retailers and installers, the CID Awards celebrate creativity and technical prowess in the use of tile and stone in residential, commercial, international and sustainable projects.
Sponsored by TileLetter and Contemporary Stone & Tile Design, the program will honor winning projects at Coverings 2015, which will be held April 14-17, 2015 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Fla.
“The CID Awards program shines a spotlight on the remarkable talent in the tile and stone industry — these are the trailblazers and visionaries exhibiting the highest levels of creativity, craftsmanship and outstanding use of materials,” said Karin Fendrich, Coverings show director. “With more than 100 outstanding entries in 2014, this program has gained significant momentum, and reflects tile and stone’s presence in today’s impressive designs and installations.”
An independent panel of judges will evaluate submissions based on execution and installation, original usage, and overall design and purpose, with special recognition given to those projects exemplifying stunning tile and stone. The Grand Prize winners of the Residential and Commercial categories will each receive $2,000 and a one night’s hotel stay in Orlando. Additional cash prizes will be awarded in each category. Winners must be present at the CID Awards & Opening Night Celebration. If winners are unable to attend, the project will be disqualified with a new winner awarded — with the exception of international projects.
