OFFICIAL ENTRY WITH CONTEST RULES AND GUIDELINES 

The 2024 ANDYZ Awards are open to all current enrolled Design Students 

The prestigious ANDYZ Awards, which recognize and celebrate noteworthy projects by Interior Designers, Architects, Design Firms, Showrooms, and Design Students, in 14 categories – will be presented during a celebration at the 2024 Las Vegas Summer Market.

The ANDYZ Awards, named to bear the resemblance of “Annual Nevada Design” were created in 2015 to recognize exceptional design from designers and design firms. Interior design projects in residential, commercial, and hospitality categories will be judged anonymously by an esteemed panel of professional ASID practitioners and an editorial member of Furniture Lighting & Décor (a national trade publication).  

ENTRY RULES AND GUIDELINES 

Each entry submitted must include all required documents and criteria to be eligible to win. 

1.      Each entrant must create a profile on CPJAM (the online platform that manages the ANDYZ Awards). If you have partnered on a project, each of the contributing parties must create a separate CPJAM profile. This ensures they are given equal credit for the design if it wins, and that the correct information is listed in publications and during the Awards Celebration. Also, entrants will need to submit a separate headshot, company logo if different, and a Bio document for each co-contributor. 

2.      You will need to complete one (1) each of the following files: Agreement, Headshot, Bio, Summary, and up to 8 professional quality J-Peg or PNG picture files (8 photos max for all categories): 

 

a.      Agreement: The “Designer Terms and Indemnification and Release” must be completed online.

b.      Bio: A PDF Document in which you must include your name, company name, best mailing address, best e-mail contact, and best phone number contact. Below that, please list the exact name(s) (and/or company name) that you want printed on the Award if you win.  You must also include a short bio about yourself and the company that you represent. Please list all your social media handles written in full. Submit a separate Bio for each co contributor on the project. 

c.       Headshot: Upload a recent professional quality headshot for each co-contributor. Logo: Upload a separate file with your company logo, and the logos of co-contributors. 

d.      Photos: Floor plans, Boards, Renderings, Picture of Model, but no more than 8 pictures/renderings or design documents total, with files sizes no bigger than 8 MB each. The picture files should be professional quality, high resolution JPEG or PNG images. Please be sure that your image file size is no bigger than 8 MB per image. *Please do not label or watermark these files with your name or any personal info. Upon notification of your Award, you may be requested to send .tiff files of your photos for publication and large screen use. Use the order of your images to tell your story. After uploading you can drag and drop the photos to change the order of images. We suggest you also select your preferred photo, by checking the box below that photo. This will be the image shown on your entry folder before the judges open it. Images must be correctly oriented before loading. Pictures cannot be adjusted within the program. 

 

e.      Photo Captions: Please type a caption in the caption box below each photo that you submit.  Captions should describe the photo in no more than 50-80 words.

 

f.        Summary: Please complete the summary portion of the entry by typing directly into the summary section. The summary is an explanation of your interior design project in a descriptive, 300 word or less, statement - in paragraph form. *Do not put your name, logo, or identifying information in this section. Please be mindful of your grammar and spelling and write it just as if you are submitting for a publication. 

 

g.      Floorplan (Optional): Floor plans are optional. Please note, we will not accept any other items including design board, elevations, or renderings (except for student projects), unless you would like to use such a document in place of a photo. *Please do not label this file with your name, and do not leave any watermarks or identifying information about your business and the client in this document.
