Celebrating Excellence in Design

This year's ANDYZ Award winners were recognized for exceptional design - from individual designers, design firms and design students!

Las Vegas Design Center and ASID California Central | Nevada announced the 2023 ANDYZ Award winners at this past month's Las Vegas Market.

"Las Vegas Design Center is proud to partner with ASID to honor the incredible talent and creativity of the interior design community - from California and Nevada to Florida and Ontario Canada," said Cain Brodie, LVDC General Manager.

The ANDYZ Awards were created in 2015 to recognize exceptional design from designers, architects and design students. Interior design projects are judged by a panel of ASID designers from across the country on five main criteria: presentation; innovation/creative use of the space; scale and functionality; aesthetics and overall execution. The 2023 awards were presented by David Gebhardt, president of Global Views and Frederick Rayner, brand ambassador of Global Views with Media partnership by Furniture, Lighting, & Decor.
