ANDYZ Awards FAQS

The ANDYZ accepts submissions from all Designers, Architects, and Students currently enrolled in a Design or Architecture program. Showrooms that provide goods and services to the Design/Build industry are allowed to enter in their own category. All Design, Architecture, and Showroom business must be based within the United States of America, but designs submitted may be located anywhere.

The ANDYZ Awards recognizes excellent and original design work from across the country. Being a winner of the ANDYZ Awards symbolizes high achievement in design. You know that you have what it takes, and you want others to know that you are in league with the best. Why not be a part of this showcase for award-winning designs.

It is very easy to enter. We have implemented CPJAM as our Awards management company. All you have to do is create an account on their site, pay for your entries online through CPJAM, and upload your images and documents directly. As long as you do not have identifying names and marks within your uploads (except for those that require this information), your uploads will go directly to your personal entry file for that submission, and will be made available to the judges in an anonymous format.

Yes, you may enter as many categories as you’d like to. You cannot, however, submit the same design into more than 1 category. The exception is if it is a single room from a multiple space design, and you will be submitting the entire design in a multiple space category, or if it is a product design that is featured in a space that will be entered into another category.

Yes, you may enter as many times as you’d like to in the same category, but they must be different designs.

Yes, you may include all contributing entities for an entry. Each contributor must create an account on CPJAM, so that they can be acknowledged for the Award. Please note that only 1 crystal trophy award will be given for that entry, if it wins. Additional trophies may be purchased separately if needed.

No, you pay now to save on your entries, but you may submit your entries at any time before the final deadline, not the early-bird deadline.

Yes, payment is made to CPJAM before any entry documents and images can be uploaded.

Yes, you may add as many entries to your account as you’d like to, even if you have already paid for one separately, or paid as an early-bird.

No. The ANDYZ Awards is held in partnership with ASID California Central / Nevada Chapter, and the Las Vegas Design Center, an IMC property, therefore the ANDYZ Awards is open to everyone. 

Yes, all entries are anonymous. All files submitted to CPJAM for the ANDYZ Awards are encrypted and placed in a separate folder for each design. The folder is given a code to make it anonymous and your personal file names will not be visible to the judges. Your Bio, Headshot, and the information that you provide in the agreement is never seen by the judges.

Professional ASID Interior Designers from a variety of locations all over the United States (not including Central California and Nevada), and Design Magazine editors are our judges.

Winners are announced at Las Vegas Market at the ANDYZ Awards Celebration event.  Las Vegas Market, Las Vegas Design Center and ASID Chapter also announce the winners via press release, on the website, on our social media platforms, and in national industry publications after the celebration event. Winners are notified personally via phone and e-mail before the winners are announced publicly.

The ANDYZ Awards Celebration is usually held on the first Sunday of Las Vegas Summer Market. Invitations with details about the event are posted on Social media, and sent to our mailing lists, closer to the date. This invitation may be distributed to your friends and colleagues. Anyone with a badge for Las Vegas Market may attend. If you are unable to get a Market badge for yourself or any of your guests, please let us know at info@cac-nv.asid.org, and we will take care of it.
