From a submission pool of 500, only 23 were awarded for 2015, with some firms winning in more than one category. This type of award could either be like a very flattering compliment at this point for some firms or as a hallmark of approval that they've made a name for themselves. Regardless, the Institute Honor Awards continue to highlight projects that set the bar.</p><p>Architecture: 28th Street Apartments; Los Angeles by Koning Eizenberg Architecture, Inc.</p><p><img title="" alt="" src="http://cdn.archinect.net/images/514x/fj/fjodubrt2u16ocfj.jpg"></p><p>Interior Architecture: Louisiana State Museum; Natchitoches, Louisiana by Traha...</p>
