A Washington, DC restaurant and a Carlsbad, California-based concrete company were the winners of the second annual Earth- Minded Awards, sponsored by Hospitality Design (HD) magazine and the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID). The award was created to honor projects and products that best support the principles of sustainability and environmental sensitivity in hospitality.
Founding Farmers (left), a restaurant in Washington, DC, designed by Core Architecture + Design, also Washington-based, was the winner in the project category. (See HD, March 2009 for full coverage of the restaurant.) The runner-up was Clodagh Design (architecture by Mithun), for the guestrooms at the Miraval Resort in Tucson, Arizona.
The Ecolite Double-Sided Wall System from Ecolite Concrete USA (right) took the product prize. The system consists of prefabricated, ready-to-erect concrete walls used for highrise hotel cladding. Runners-up in the product category were the Forest Chair by Janus et Cie in West Hollywood, California; the Broadway and Transit Armchairs from Atelier Boris Bally in Providence, Rhode Island; and Hand-Carved Reclaimed Teak Doors and Panels from Island Living in Corona del Mar, California.
Judges for the product category were Kirsten Childs of Croxton Collaborative Architects; Clodagh of Clodagh Design; and Michael Suomi of Stonehill & Taylor Architects. Childs and Suomi were the sole judges for the project category. All judges are New York City-based. There was no award this year for the student category.
