On Sept. 18, the American Society of Interior Designers-Illinois Chapter (ASID-IL) announced the winners of the 2015 Design Excellence Awards during an event hosted in The Ivy Room at The Tree Studios.

The Celebration of Design Gala marked the 12th anniversary of the Design Excellence Awards competition, which recognizes the best in contract and residential interior design in Illinois.

The submissions were anonymously reviewed by a distinguished panel of judges, including the ASID Colorado Chapter and Indiana Chapter, which evaluated the contract, industry partner and product design categories. The Wisconsin Chapter and California Peninsula judged the residential work.

Some of the winners included Hartshome Plunkard Architecture, Frank Ponterio Interior Design, Sweet Pea Design and Fun Finders.
