As we move through our daily lives, we notice the appeal of a community as we pass by. Over time, as we live and work in a community, the things that drew us to live there become ingrained in our existence. They quietly shape who we are and how we live.
The Seaside Prize recognizes individuals and organizations who, through design, have changed the way we live. Prize winners are thought innovators in the concepts, quality, and character of their industry. They are considered leaders of contemporary urban development and education who have made their vision a reality and, ultimately, our lives better.
Recipients of the Prize influence how towns and cities are built. They challenge our thinking about promoting diversity, walkability, sustainability, livability, and quality of life. From young to old–where we live is at the core of how we live.

The weekend event is a celebration of innovation, community, and design, honoring the thought leaders and creators who help shape our lives through the communities they build. These are people who sparked a movement and continue to inspire a new era of thoughtful, impactful design.
