Good design is a collaborative effort involving many diverse perspectives including developers, architects, builders and community members. Clark County and the City of Vancouver recognize this effort annually with the Community Pride Design Awards. Since 1996, more than 100 projects have been honored, representing commercial, industrial, residential development, public facilities and restoration efforts.
