The evening started with supper and catching up with students who graduated the previous year, after supper a presentation was shown to learn about a quick way to show clients and designers learn how to use Chief Architect software as a reference to what the future design would look be once finished. The NKBA meeting also had representatives of Stone Harbor Hardware, where they showed a model of the different hardware used in each setting room of the house.
