This global awards program, the largest of its kind, is a barometer for innovation within the industry \u2014 and it carries a huge weight given the demographic that decides the winners.<\/p>\n<p>There are two A+Product Awards up for grabs for each category \u2014 one voted for by Architizer&#8217;s community via a free online vote, and one selected by a jury of more than 200 active specifiers and design thinkers. Both of these groups include a large number of architects and designers \u2014 professionals who specify tens of millions of dollars each year in building products and materials. Just for starters, the <a href=\"https:\/\/awards.architizer.com\/products\/jury\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A+Product Awards jury<\/a> includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Annabelle Selldorf<\/strong>, Principal, Selldorf Architects<\/li>\n<li><strong>David Rockwell<\/strong>, Founder and President, Rockwell Group<\/li>\n<li><strong>Neri Oxman<\/strong>, Designer and Professor, MIT Media Lab<\/li>\n<li><strong>Joan Blumenfeld<\/strong>, Design Principal and Interior Design Director, Perkins+Will<\/li>\n<li><strong>Peter Gluck<\/strong>, Founder and Principal, GLUCK+<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cheryl Durst<\/strong>, Vice President and CEO, IIDA<\/li>\n<li><strong>Carol Ross Barney<\/strong>, Founder, Ross Barney Architects<\/li>\n<li><strong>Gary Handel<\/strong>, Founding Partner, Handel Architects<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These decision makers have a key say in which designers rise to the top and grab the spotlight. Last year, 28 brands came out victorious, with a range of designers, fabricators and collaborators grabbing prestigious accolades in a wide variety of categories. The 2019 A+Product Awards is dedicated to the next great wave of building-product manufacturers, those that will take architecture into 2020 with cutting-edge creative ideas. This year, the prizes are even bigger \u2014 including the opportunity to be published in &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/awards.architizer.com\/products\/awards\/?utm_source=content&amp;utm_medium=architizer_blog&amp;utm_campaign=final-entry&amp;utm_content=content-16\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The World&#8217;s Best Building-Products<\/a>&#8220;, a digital publication that will be distributed to thousands of member architecture firms.<\/p>\n<p>To put themselves in the running, brand representatives should <a href=\"https:\/\/entries.architizer.com\/#\/enter\/?utm_source=content&amp;utm_medium=architizer_blog&amp;utm_campaign=final-entry&amp;utm_content=content-16\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">follow this link<\/a> and register for submission this week \u2014 the final entry deadline is midnight on Friday, March 29th.
