Ones to Watch
Ones to Watch
The WDC’s Ones to Watch Award recognizes new design talent, on a local level, that is moving to the fore front of the design industry. Those Designers/firms nominated repeatedly demonstrate creativity, originality, and overall great design.
This year The WDC’s showrooms nominated 13 designers who are all exceptional in their craft. We are so excited to see their impact on the design community in the future.
The top three Ones to Watch were announced during Capital Design Days at an award ceremony and cocktail reception hosted by Kravet. Congratulations to the 2011 One’s to Watch!
