2023 Glass Magazine Award Winners Announced
Glass Magazine’s editorial staff is pleased to announce the winners of the 2023 Glass Magazine Awards, the long running industry competition. This year’s awards program once again recognizes the best projects and products in the glass industry.
“This year’s Glass Magazine Award winners demonstrate the amazing multifunctional capabilities of glass,” says Katy Devlin, Content Director and Editor-in-Chief of Glass Magazine. “The winners show how glass and glazing are used to meet sustainability and performance requirements, to create spaces that provide safe and healthy environments for occupants, and to achieve unparalleled feats of design and aesthetics. Additionally, they show how collaboration across the project team can make even the most challenging projects possible.”
The competition’s seven winning projects and six winning products will be featured in the August/September issue of Glass Magazine. Winners will also be recognized at a ceremony at GlassBuild America: The Glass Window & Door Expo at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, Georgia held on Oct. 31-Nov. 2.
