Announcing the winners of our 2017 Photo Contest
For the 2017 CSSBI Annual Photo Contest, all photos were submitted for adjudication by our panel of judges.
- Catherine Kilcoyne, Instructor at Conestoga College in the Architectural Technology Program
- Natalie Gartska, 4th-year Student Conestoga College - Architectural Technology Program
The winners and runners-up of the photo contest were announced at our Annual CSSBI Member Meeting on June 4, 2017 in Vancouver, BC.
The CSSBI Photo Contest covers five sheet steel categories, including:
- Agricultural Roofing & Cladding
- Lightweight Steel Framing
- Residential Steel Roofing & Siding
- Industrial, Commercial & Institutional Roofing, Cladding & Decking
- Steel Building Systems
Our panel judged the photos for each category based on the overall aesthetics of the picture, a project's use of sheet steel, the relevancy of sheet steel to the project, architectural design, as well as the presentation of any unique features. Catherine had this to say about judging this year's contest:
"It seems that the submissions become stronger each year - both in terms of showcasing the products/systems, but also in the increasingly-thoughtful considerations reflected in the care taken in framing and viewpoint of the photos themselves.
While this makes the review more difficult - it also makes it more engaging."
The category winners and runners-up are listed below. The CSSBI congratulates the winners and runners-up, and thanks all member participants for making this year's Photo Contest a success. Keep snapping those photos and we'll see you next year!
