Thomas Jefferson Awards for Public Architecture

Great public architecture embodies the identity and values of a society. The Thomas Jefferson Awards for Public Architecture recognize architects in the public and private sectors, public officials, or other individuals who design distinguished public facilities and/or who advocate for design excellence.

A self-taught architect who designed his own and colleagues’ homes, Jefferson wrote extensively on architecture, developed an architectural style that’s still influential today, and positioned architecture as an essential element in establishing the new nation and capital.
