Our 2017 Design Awards Are Launching Soon—Get Your Projects Ready

May 29, 2017

We’re launching our 2017 Considered Design Awards in just four days—on June 1. The Gardenista contest is open to everyone—beginner gardeners, lifelong enthusiasts, landscape architects, horticulturalists, and garden designers are all welcome to submit, as are homeowners, renters, architects, DIYers, and interior designers in the Remodelista contest. Finalists will be selected by a panel of judges (to be announced soon), and winners will be chosen by public vote.

Submission Period:

June 1-June 22

Contest Categories:

  • Best Garden (Open to Amateurs)
  • Best Landscape (Open to Professionals)

  • Best Hardscape Project (Everyone)

More details to come, but readers in the US, UK, and Canada (except Quebec) are free to enter.
