The [[National Building Museum]] promotes excellence in architecture, engineering, construction, planning, and design. In furtherance of that mission, the Museum instituted an annual '''Honor Award''' in 1986 to recognize individuals and organizations that have made important contributions to the U.S.'s building heritage. Recipients are selected from a wide variety of backgrounds to call attention to the many factors that determine the form and quality of the built world.<br>
The National Building Museum also bestows two other major awards: the [[Vincent Scully Prize]] to recognize exemplary practice, scholarship, or criticism in architecture, historic preservation, and urban design and the [[Henry C. Turner Prize for Innovation in Construction Technology]].
▲Unlike the National Building Museum's other two awards, the [[Vincent Scully Prize]] and the [[Henry C. Turner Prize]], the Honor Award is not limited to individuals or organizations who solely operate in fields associated with the built environment, such as architecture, engineering, and construction technology. Past recipients include ex-First Lady [[Lady Bird Johnson]], who was honored in 1995 for her lifetime leadership in beautification and conservation campaigns,<ref>Nadine Brozan, "Chronicle," June 10, 1995. http://www.nytimes.com/1995/06/10/style/chronicle-761196.html?src=pm</ref> and, in 2001, [[Michael Eisner]] and [[The Walt Disney Company]], who since Eisner's Disney presidency in 1984 has employed postmodernist architects such as [[Michael Graves]], [[Robert A.M. Stern]], [[Frank Gehry]], and [[Arata Isozaki]] to create the Disney Company's architecture all over the world.<ref>Benjamin Forgey, "Make-Believe Architecture: The Real Deal; Exhibit Explores the Reach Of Disney's Design Style," Washington Post, March 18, 2001.</ref> In 2010, [[Perkins and Will]] became the first architecture firm ever to receive the prize for, according to museum executive director Chase Rynd, "designing buildings that promote the health of occupants, conserve resources, and unify communities."<ref>Nicholas Tamarin, "Perkins + Will Nabs National Building Museum Honor Award," February 9, 2010. http://www.interiordesign.net/article/478838-Perkins_Will_Nabs_National_Building_Museum_Honor_Award.php</ref>
