Humphreys & Partners Architects walked away with several prestigious awards from this year’s Aurora Awards 2018 at the Gaylord Palms Resort & Convention Center in Kissimmee, Florida on August 17. Hosted by the Southeast Building Conference, the Aurora Awards spotlight innovation in design and features over 61 categories including office space, renovated projects, commercial, mixed-use, multifamily, and many more. This isn’t HPA’s first recognition at the Aurora Awards — our projects across the Southeastern US have received top honors by the Aurora Awards many times in the past, including multiple wins just last year.
“Each of the winning projects faithfully carried out our client’s unique vision of creating a one-of-a-kind multifamily community with a world-class design and ultramodern amenities,” says HPA CEO Mark Humphreys on his team and their award-winning projects. “Whether it is student housing or mixed use, our team leverages the power of design to enhance the return on investment for clients and the overall well-being of future residents.”
