Eligibility and FAQs

  • I am a member (architect ie) but the developer of the project is not a member. Is the project eligible to enter?

    No, the developer of the project must be a UDI member.

  • I am a member (developer) but some of the development team are not members (architect, engineer, ie). Can they enter the project on my behalf?

    Yes, providing the developer gives consent.

  • Is the project team recognized at the ceremony?

    Although the Award goes to the developer of the project, members of the project team will be formally recognized at the event.
