The Toronto Urban Design Awards, held by the City of Toronto every second year, recognize achievements in urban design, architecture and landscape architecture. Designers, developers, project owners, community groups, design students and others are invited to enter eligible projects. The call for 2023 submissions is now open.
Submission categories include elements, private buildings in context, public buildings in context, small open spaces, large places or neighbourhood designs, visions and master plans, and student projects. Design students are also encouraged to enter theoretical or studio Toronto-related projects.
The Toronto Urban Design Awards promote and enhance quality of life through good urban design practices. Good design is the foundation of cityscapes that are functional and attractive. Celebrating excellence in urban design helps create a city that appeals to residents, businesses and visitors alike.
