Four outstanding tile and stone projects have been awarded Coverings Installation & Design (CID) Awards, a program that honors outstanding design and installation of tile and stone in the categories of Residential Stone, Residential Tile, Commercial Stone, and Commercial Tile, as well as special recognition honorees. A judging panel of industry professionals evaluated submissions based on execution, original usage, and overall design and purpose, and gave special recognition to those projects exemplifying noteworthy tile and stone applications.
“The CID Awards program is distinct because it demonstrates how beautiful product, design artistry, and a high level of technical skill come together to create spectacular architecture and design,” said Jennifer Hoff, president of Taffy Event Strategies, the event management company that produces Coverings.
This year’s winners are presenting their projects to show attendees at 8:00 a.m. on April 5 as part of the conference program. Attendees to this session will hear about the design inspiration, products used, challenges, and gain tips from their peers who have earned the coveted title of CID award winner.
