Savannah, GA – October 5, 2016 — The American Institute of Architects, South Atlantic Region (AIASAR) is pleased to announce the winners of the 2016 South Atlantic Region Design Awards. Over 150 people celebrated the work of firms from Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina on Saturday evening, October 1, 2016 at the SCAD Museum of Art in downtown Savannah, GA.
A total of 19 awards were presented to regional architecture firms in five categories: Adaptive Reuse/Preservation, Housing, Interior Architecture, Unrealized and New Construction/Substantial Renovation.

In addition, the AIA SAR Council bestowed the 2016 Roger Milliken Legacy Award upon Paula Wallace, Hon. AIA, Founder and President of the Savannah College of Art and Design. Wallace was honored for “her passion and leadership, through which Savannah now stands as a great model of how design advocacy, community engagement and civic responsibility can lead to economic and cultural transformation of our Nation’s cities – and a better life for their residents.”
