December 10th saw the coming together of the crème de la crème of the architecture and design fraternity at the Aces of Space Design Awards by Architect and Interiors India presented by Blue Star. The starry awards night was the congregation of the months of nomination process followed by a grand jury meet that was held in November.

The Awards evening held at Hriday Lawns at Sofitel Hotel in BKC was full of gaiety and enthusiasm with nominees cheering for their tribe in large numbers. At a time when everything had come to a standstill, it is interesting to know that most architects and designers continued to work and create. It is this undying love for one’s job that only reiterates one’s firm belief that the world must continue to toil to be made a better place. And it is this enthusiasm and zeal to achieve that made the Aces of Space Design Awards that saw the coming together of the entire industry under one roof after two years so special.

The event started with a welcome note by Sumisha Gilotra, Editor, Architect and Interiors India who quoted Winston Churchill ‘We shape our buildings and the buildings shape us’ and said, “These words of Winston Churchill constantly remind me of the good fortune I have had of interacting and experiencing the company of those who shape the buildings we live in!” PV Rao, – President & Chief Operating Officer of Blue Star India, the presenting partner welcomed the august audience by saying, “We are proud to have partnered to this prestigious event that pays homage to some of the most brilliant design projects and firms that have been change makers and trendsetters in their field.”
