GOLD NUGGET AWARDS
Recognizing those who improve our communities through exceptional concepts in design, planning and development.
The oldest and largest program of its kind—now in its 49th year—the Gold Nugget Awards honor creative achievements in architectural design and land use planning for residential, commercial and industrial projects.
Entries come from 14 Western states, and international entries are now accepted for all countries. Gold Nugget winners share one common denominator: excellence and innovation in addressing complex design/build issues. The competition is sponsored and presented by PCBC®.
