The Forum AID Award was a
Nordic architecture and design award, given annually by the
Swedish magazine Forum AID. AID is an acronym for the three subject-matters of the magazine - Architecture, Interior design and Design - and it is also the three categories of the award. It is given to the designers of the "Best Building
nterior design and design in the Nordic Countries" that year. The award was founded in 2004 and is presented at a ceremony in Stockholm
The selection process is carried out in two stages. Each Nordic country is represented through its selection committee. The task of the committees is to select the best objects in their respective countries or by their countrymen abroad. The committees choose freely from those objects that had been carried out during the period October 1, to September 30, the year before. The winner is chosen by an international jury.
