28 projects have received the AIA's Institute Honor Awards for 2013, recognizing good design in architecture, interior architecture and urban design.

Among the winning projects are those completed as recently as last fall, such as the new Barnes Foundation project, along with somewhat older projects going back to 2009. Many of the older projects, such as the LEED Platinum-certified Vancouver West Convention Center, have previously received other AIA awards at the national and state levels.

Perhaps as a sign of the continuing mixed bag of construction spending, the winners included a notable number of institutional and public projects, while comparatively few residential and commercial projects were present. In fact, only two high-end residential projects - one in Seattle and one in Chicago - received awards.

Three SOM projects won in the Urban Design category, while the renowned firm claimed no awards in either architecture or interior architecture.
