PJHM WINS GOLD(S)
We're excited to announce our work for PJHM Architects has received two gold awards from the prestigious 2017 Davey Awards Gold for Best Website, and the 2017 Ava Digital Awards Gold.
About the Davey Awards:
The Davey Awards is an international creative award focused exclusively on honoring outstanding creative work
from the best small agencies worldwide. The 2016 Davey Awards received nearly 4,000 entries from ad agencies,
interactive agencies, production firms, in-house creative professionals, graphic designers, design firms and
public relations firms. David defeated the mighty Goliath with a big idea and a little rock. That is the sort
of thing small agencies do every day. The Davey Awards honors the achievement of the “Creative David’s” where
strength comes from ideas, intelligence and out-of-the-box thinking, not a “Giant’s” bankroll. Great work is
about fresh ideas and exceptional execution, not the biggest budgets. The Davey levels the playing field so
entrants compete with only their peers and can win the recognition they deserve.
Who is behind the Davey:
The Davey is judged and overseen by the Academy of Interactive and Visual Arts (AIVA). The AIVA is an
invitation-only member-based organization of leading professionals from various disciplines of the visual arts
dedicated to embracing progress and the evolving nature of traditional and interactive media. Current membership
represents a “Who’s Who” of acclaimed media, advertising, and marketing firms including: Code and Theory,
Condé Nast, Disney, GE, Keller Crescent, Microsoft, Monster.com, MTV, Push., Publicis, Sesame Workshops,
The Marketing Store, Worktank and Yahoo!, and many others. Visit www.aiva.org for more information.

Over the years, AMCP’s programs evolved into the AVA Awards, Hermes Creative Awards,MarCom Awards and Communitas Awards. Entrants to those programs form the membership of AMCP. AMCP’s Advisory Board administers the programs. Each board member contributes a specific real world expertise that enhances the knowledge of the board as a whole. Board members participate in and oversee judging, and help establish the goals and direction of the organization.
As part of its mission, AMCP fosters and supports the efforts of creative professionals who contribute their unique talents to public service and charitable organizations.
