ATLANTA’S
BIG NIGHT OUT
EVENT PHOTOS BY BEN ROSE
The best and the brightest design talents celebrate the Institute of Classical Architecture and Art, Southeast Chapter’s 14th annual Shutze awards Only one event could gather around 300 architects, designers, landscape architects, and other industry fellows dressed in their finest black-tie attire for a lengthy dinner at the Piedmont Driving Club: The Shutze Awards Ceremony, named for Philip Trammell Shutze, Atlanta’s most famous architect. To an outsider, the night is often explained as “the Oscars of the design world.” And rightfully so—the submission process is rigorous. Once completed, entries were blindly and stiffly judged by this year’s acclaimed jurors,
designer Madeline Stuart, architect Thomas A. Kligerman, and landscape architect Douglas Hoerr. And after all the work is complete, there is a glittery awards ceremony party (this year chaired by designer Susan Ferrier and said by many to be the best one yet). Before any awards were given out, architect Stan Dixon announced the ICAA’s Kyle D. Taylor Scholarship in honor of the late young Atlanta architectural designer. Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles was in attendance and is thrilled to share the winners. 15
