July 20, 2011

The City of Calgary now accepting submissions for the Mayor’s Urban Design Awards 2011.

Urban design is the practice of creating places that are attractive, memorable and functional for the people who use them - the distinctive and cherished buildings and spaces which make a city unique and its citizens proud. Every two years, the Mayor’s Urban Design Awards (MUDA) celebrates the best of Calgary’s new urban design, landscape design and architecture, recognizing the contribution of all the consultants, developers, communities and owners who created them.

The City of Calgary is currently accepting MUDA 2011 submissions with a deadline of 4:00 pm on Thursday, September 15, 2011.

This year’s award categories include: Conceptual/Theoretical Urban Design Projects, Approved or Adopted Urban Design Plans, Urban Architecture, Civic Design Projects, Urban Fragments, Community Improvement Projects, Student Projects, The Mawson Urban Design Award, and City Edge Development.

Eligibility details are available at www.calgary.ca/muda. You can also email your questions to muda@calgary.ca.

As an active member of our community, you may be interested in this year’s event. We invite you, your organization or your clients to submit projects for award consideration in one or more categories.

The 4th MUDA Gala Reception will take place on Wednesday, November 2 at the brand new Telus World of Science. The winning entries will receive an award or a certificate of Honorable Mention in the applicable category. MUDA will also serve as the qualifying event for the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada (RAIC) National Urban Design Awards being held in 2012.

Ticket and jury details are still being finalized, so please visit our website regularly for updates.

I have a passion for making this city even better and quality urban design is one more way to achieve this. Please consider submitting, sponsoring or attending MUDA 2011 – the event for celebrating great design in our city.

Sincerely,
Naheed Nenshi
MAYOR
