Design Awards

Each year the Starnet Design Awards rewards the creativity and talent of our members by recognizing outstanding commercial interiors featuring innovative flooring products and technologies.

Celebrating superior design, with attention to style and function, the winning projects come from a variety of installations to offer inspiration to all Starnet members. Entries are judged based on the creative use of flooring, as well as the design concept and overall quality of the solution delivered to the client.

A crystal award is presented in eight different categories, including small and large corporate installations, healthcare, education, and hospitality and public spaces, as well as unique challenges and student achievement. The Student Achievement winner receives a cash award of $1000 and their School/ Instructor receive a crystal award. The Grand Prize Winner for best overall design, receives the Grand Prize Crystal Award and a $5000 award to be given to a recognized charity of their choice.

Enthusiasm for the Starnet Design Awards continues to grow as we look forward to celebrating the talent and vision of Starnet members and their associates each year.
