Now entering its sixth year, the EIFS Architectural Awards program has garnered 250 entries, standing as the premier competition exclusive to the EIFS industry. Esteemed architects, who previously attained the highest honors in the EIFS Architectural Awards, comprise the judging panel. This year’s discerning judges were Damon Barda of c|a Architects in Long Beach, CA, Kirk Rose of HMC Architects in Los Angeles, and Joseph Del Ciotto with Lantz Boggio/Architects in Denver, CO.

Consistent with previous years, the panel marveled not only at EIFS’s architectural adaptability but also its capacity to curtail energy usage and contribute to carbon emissions reduction objectives in the built environment.

“The array of EIFS finishes is incredible,” the jury remarked. “EIFS’s ability to replicate stone, brick, wood, or any desired building material empowers architects and designers to achieve remarkable feats in exterior cladding, with the added bonus of integrated continuous insulation to meet energy code requirements.”

The awards ceremony took place on March 13th during the 2024 EIMA Annual Meeting in Dallas, TX. Recognizing three distinct award categories, a total of 18 EIFS projects emerged victorious, assessed on their versatility, quality, overall impact, and distinctiveness.
