I might be a little biased, but I do love the MaRS building at College and University. Last year, I think it got 2nd place behind the ballet school.

And, strangely, you can't find that info on the website... so I am going to 100th that motion that their site is frustrating.]]>

Not what I'd expected to hear, but thanks for your comments anyway. Suppose I should change the title to Who Cares About Web Design?  or maybe make some future posts centered on that theme.

Funny... I was just joining the discussion to say what has already been said. Forget the architecture, that's one poorly designed web site!]]>

I agree.  The Pug Awards site is a bit messy and offers little navigational control.  Was annoyed too that their archives are off-line and many of their links, including one to blogTO are broken (they said they were working on it about a week ago).
So, perhaps that should've been the spin - a site exploring the best and worst in city design, function and public interaction doesn't take this same criteria to heart when creating their own public and interactive site.  Still, I think these awards serve an important function and that outweighed any frustration with the site.

Just to get the architecture debate up and running I'll offer up my fav building of the year: The Gardiner Museum, pictured above.]]>

"Learn good design by looking at bad design"

If you really think they should include it, let 'em know.]]>

Does anyone know anything about the 'Pug Ed' seminars as described on the website?  It doesn't really offer much information at all about it...

If there were a website about bad website design, this site would surely be on that list.]]>

Agree... that is a horrible site. 
Hard to navigate, way too over the top for something that should be sweet and simple. 
Total turn off. 
Fuck buildings.]]>

It truly is a bad site. Why should I have to turn my head to see who the nominees are? Absolutely no thought put into function.]]>

In Toronto, as in all cities, there are two camps, those who care about web site design and those who don't notice a thing. ]]>
