The past two years have given us the gift of time. Time to reevaluate, time to re-imagine and time to rethink what we want our lives to look and feel like. The innovative designers featured in this year’s 417 Home Design Awards have taken the ordinary, outdated and uninspired and asked, “What’s next?” From blank-slate new construction to a gut renovated kitchen and a sexy walk-in shower, this year’s winners are proof that a designer’s abilities are as endless as their imagination. For this year’s contest we asked two Atlanta-based American Society of Interior Designer members to judge our entries based on a form carefully curated for each category. This issue features the winners from six of those categories with the remaining winners coming to you in issues throughout the year. Welcome to our 2022 Design Awards—you’re in for one creative and awe-inspiring ride.
