Denver, CO--The Custom Electronic Design & Installation Association
(CEDIA) has honored 45 of its members for excellence in the design and
installation of electronic systems. CEDIA's Electronic Lifestyles
Designer Awards are considered the most prestigious awards program for
the $10 billion residential electronic systems industry.
Work
submitted for the Electronic Lifestyles Designer Awards is completed in
consumer homes around the world in the following categories: home
theaters, integrated homes, media rooms, hidden installations and more.
Submissions range from $40,000 single-room projects to whole-house
integration systems that carry price tags topping $3 million.
Winners
were selected by two qualified panels which evaluated submissions based
on both the technical merits and the design/aesthetics. The technical
panel consisted of five CEDIA residential electronic systems contractor
members and the design panel included members from the American
Institute of Architects and the American Society of Interior Designers.
All
of the submissions are published in the Electronic Lifestyles Designer
Awards Book with color images and essay explanations of the projects'
challenges and products used. Award Books are available for $10 for
CEDIA Members and $15 for non-members at www.cedia.org/store, beginning
Monday, Sept. 17.
The award winners will also be featured in an
issue of CEDIA's Electronic Lifestyles magazine later this year.
Electronic Lifestyles magazine is a high quality publication that
provides architects, builders and interior designers as well as
consumers a great resource to learn about residential electronic
systems.
