Good Design Is Good Business

June 1, 2016

In its 19th year, Architectural Record’s annual Good Design is Good Business Awards recognizes exemplary architectural solutions that were instrumental in the growth and success of a range of businesses—from startups to not-for-profits to major corporations. This year’s diverse projects, from the inhouse revitalization of a firm’s own design studios to an inner-city minor league ballfield, were singled out for their contributions to attracting and retaining talent, enhancing employee well-being, improving community relations, and, ultimately, boosting the client’s bottom line.
