I was so excited to co-host our 6th Annual Design Awards with the award-winning designer Vicente Wolf.
In the afternoon he gave a fabulous talk with designer Elissa Grayer on creating a peaceful environment. Afterwards, we mingled with finalists, sponsors, and friends during a cocktail hour, and then it was time for the main event: announcing the winners.
