Highlights of NYSID’s 2013 Spring Gala

On April 30th, The New York School of Interior Design, a private, not-for-profit college devoted exclusively to interior design education and related disciplines honored two industry luminaries, Geoffrey Bradfield and Laurie D. Olin. The event was well attended by notables in the industry, guests and supporters of the college. Geoffrey Bradfield, an Architectural Digest Dean of American Design, was the recipient of the Albert Hadley Lifetime Achievement Award. One of the most international acclaimed designers of our time, he is known for creating elegant and luxurious interiors for private residences, offices, embassies, and resorts on virtually every continent as well as those of many yachts and jets that travel among them.

Laurie D. Olin, founder and principal of OLIN in Philadelphia, is a distinguished teacher, author, and one of the most renowned landscape architects practicing today. Olin received the Thomas N. Armstrong III Award in Landscape Design. Alexa Hampton, interior designer and NYSID trustee, was the Benefit Chairman.
