Nine projects won 2016 INawards from the International Interior Design Association’s Northern Pacific chapter.

Fifty-six projects were entered by interior designers, architects and industrial designers from Alaska, British Columbia, Washington and Idaho.

The jurors were Julie Gauthier of lauckgroup in Houston, Diana Pisone of Ted Moudis Architects in Chicago and Julie Myers of Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle.

The industry award went to Juliet Schwalbach, an account executive for Milliken. She was vice president of members for the chapter and is working on its professional development efforts.

Anne Cunningham of NBBJ received the professional award. She has been a strong supporter of the IIDA Northern Pacific Chapter, and has encouraged her community to volunteer over the years.
