With Manufactured Stone fast becoming one of the most requested wall coverings in new construction and renovation projects, contracting and design professionals are looking for innovative ways to incorporate its rugged, authentic, elegant looks and versatility.

The Masonry Veneer Manufacturers Association (MVMA) announced its third annual MVMA Design Awards, a program created to recognize the work of industry professionals who are setting trends by featuring manufactured stone veneer in their projects.

“Our goal is to recognize leaders in the Manufactured Stone industry by highlighting their design successes,” said Mike Fischer, MVMA general manager. “This year‟s theme of „Natural Beauty Fashioned in Stone‟ aims to showcase the beauty and authenticity of Manufactured Stone.”

All entries will be submitted online at www.MasonryVeneerDesignAwards.com by December 31, 2011. An independent judging panel will announce winners at the MVMA Design Awards in Orlando, FL, February 2012. There is no entry fee.

Submissions require high-resolution images of the completed project. More information, including rules and entry can be found at www.MasonryVeneerDesignAwards.com.
