The Design Excellence Awards are an important platform which highlight the exceptional interior design work that is occurring in the Pacific Northwest.
Thank you to all of the designers who submitted inspiring projects and to those whom attended the sold-out Awards ceremony last Friday.
This was the fourth year of online voting for the People’s Choice Award, and we are pleased to share that over 1,612 votes were cast from locations spanning the entire globe. The winning project (find out more below), received 307 votes! We are thrilled to see local interior design work being shared nationally, thank you for your help spreading the word.
Don’t forget to save the date for the Design Crawl on April 19, 2018, where three of the Award-winning spaces will be selected for a guided tour.
Please join us in congratulating the designers and project teams of all of the award winning submissions!
