This past Saturday the Alabama Chapter of the American Institute of Architects hosted their Excellence in Design Awards ceremony at the Perdido Key Beach Resort as part of their annual conference. The juried competition reviewed nominations from architecture firms across Alabama and recognized projects that exemplify excellence in design. Only two projects received an Honor Award, the highest level of recognition AIA Alabama bestows, at this year’s ceremony—The Mill at Prattville and the Priceville Event Center. Both projects were designed by Chambless King Architects and had been recognized at the local level earlier this summer with awards from AIA Birmingham (an Honor Award and Citation Award, respectively).

On July 16, Chambless King Architects was honored by the Birmingham chapter of the Alabama Council of the American Institute of Architects for three design projects. The awards were presented to Chambless King Architects at the chapter’s annual design award ceremony at Back Forty Beer Company in downtown Birmingham.
