The contest, sponsored by Dwell in conjunction with AIA, is a chance for people to show off their green home projects, and to win prizes for it! Anyone who is working on a green or sustainable project can submit up to four photos of that project, as well as a simple yet descriptive 250 word essay that highlights the most important green elements. The winner will receive a $1000 gift certificate from the AIA to use towards their next big green project, and 2nd and 3rd place winners will each receive $500 gift certificates.

Projects will be assessed on their sustainability, functionality, originality, cost effectiveness and design, and submissions will be judged by Dwell.com editors, AIA architects and Dwell.com site visitors.
