El American Institute of Architects (AIA) y su Comisión del Medio Ambiente (COTE en inglés) han seleccionado a los 10 mejores proyectos de arquitectura sustentable y diseño ecológico del 2016.
Por 20 años, estos premios han rendido homenaje a proyectos que protegen y mejoran el medio ambiente, a través de un enfoque integrado a la arquitectura, los sistemas naturales y la tecnología.
Un estudio recientemente publicado, titulado 'Lessons from the Leading Edge', informa que los proyectos reconocidos a través de este programa están "superando a la industria por casi todos los estándares de funcionamiento".
