Georges Fares Wins ASID National Award

Congratulations to Georges Fares, graduate of the Master of Interior Design program at The University of Texas at Austin School of Architecture. Fares recently received the One to Watch award from the American Society of Interior Designers.

To be eligible for the award, nominees must have 5-15 years of experience in the interior design industry; be actively employed in the interior design industry; on a path to a senior and/or executive-level position in the interior design industry; and belong to an underrepresented group in industry management roles, including women, members of racial and ethnic minority groups, LGBTQ, and persons with disabilities.

Fares has more than eight years of experience designing and implementing private and public design projects in the Levant, Europe, the Gulf region, and North America. His most recent project examined the different ways architecture and space could be engaged in treating and minimizing the obstacles of autism spectrum disorder on children's daily lives. Fares also is investigating effective methods of combining technology and design to positively influence the behavior and daily lives of minority groups with special needs. 

The American Society of Interior Designers is the oldest, largest and only multidisciplinary professional organization for interior designers, interior design students, and the manufacturers and suppliers who support the profession.
