In response to popular request, the Wood Awards has announced that the deadline for this year’s architecture and furniture entries has been extended to Friday, 22nd June. Details and entry forms can be found at www.woodawards.com.
The Wood Awards provide a unique and exciting opportunity to see some of the best in today’s buildings and furniture using wood. 2012 is already looking to be a great year for timber and wood products, and the extension offers potential entrants an extra opportunity to submit their projects.
Entries are made free of charge, and the entry categories are designed to attract every type and size of project in construction, joinery and furniture. The categories are Commercial & Public Access, Private, Structural, Small Project, Repair & Adaptive Reuse, Production-made Furniture and Bespoke Furniture, with the prestigious Gold Award going to the ‘winner of winners’.
With permission from the owner, anyone associated with a qualifying building or furniture project - from timber supplier to designer - can enter projects completed between spring 2011 and June 2012.
The Wood Awards is supported by leading organisations involved in wood marketing and education in the UK, including the American Hardwood Export Council (AHEC), Canada Wood, Wood for Good, the Worshipful Company of Carpenters, TRADA and American Softwoods.
