Last night, the New England design community came together at SoWa Power Station in the South End to celebrate the 2023 IIDA New England Design Awards.
PAYETTE’s Wachenheim Science Center at Williams College was honored with the Education: Large (over 50,000 SF) Category Award. It also received the prestigious Humanity of Design Award given to the most sustainable, equitable, inclusive and humane project across all of this year’s 118 entries. This was especially exciting because Wachenheim just achieved LEED Platinum!
