To encourage and reward builders, architects, and home owners to blend newly remodeled or constructed homes and businesses into the fabric of Minneapolis and St. Paul neighborhoods.
Thank you for your interest in the BLEND Award!
If you are a current submitter, a past winner or even a general follower, we have an update that may affect you.
As we continue to see the reverberating effects of the pandemic and its subsequent effects on....well, everything, we have made the difficult decision to take a one-year hiatus from the BLEND Awards program.
We have every intention of being back on board in 2023 when project inventory is up, workloads are leveled out, and submitting for a well-deserved award is something to look forward to, (and not to stress about).
In the meantime, please continue in your efforts to do and support great work in our neighborhoods, and we'll see you next year!
Warm regards,
The BLEND Awards Committee
