Big congratulations to our friend and architect extraordinaire Patri Acevedo-Riker of AcV2 Architecture in Rapid City, South Dakota. She was the [insert every possible wonderful adjective imaginable here] architect behind The Garage coworking space we developed as part of Numad Investments.
This past week, her work was recognized with the People's Choice Award from AIA South Dakota, the state-wide chapter of the American Institute of Architecture (AIA), the professional organization for architects. The AIA SD hosted their annual convention in Sioux Falls. The Design Awards Gala was last Friday night at the Icon Lounge and everyone who attended voted for their favorite project out of the 19 projects exhibited.
The Garage won the People's Choice Award! Here's what Patri shared with us about the honor.
“It was pretty overwhelming and a huge surprise to be recognized by our peers. Many firms and friends are doing amazing work across our region, and the level of projects exhibited was inspiring, so it was mind-blowing and humbling that they voted for us. (Also, I lost a $20 bet by winning the award!)”
