Welcome to Station Style Online

By Janet Wilmoth, Editorial Director
When selecting the judges for the Station Style Design Awards, we try to
find fire chiefs or officers who have hands-on experience in designing
fire stations. We also include architects from different geographical
areas. This year’s judges included three fire-department personnel who
also have experience in architecture and engineering.
And the judges — first time and returning — could all agree on one
thing: the competition was tough this year.
The first design awards in 2000 had 23 entries in four categories; this
year’s program had 87 entries in six categories. Judges reviewed each
entry on their own before meeting with the other judges. Each brought
his or her top three choices in each category to the final judging.
Discussions were intense as the choices were whittled down to gold,
silver and bronze — or none at all. Click
