ASID honors Illinois chapter
By Furniture Today Staff -- Furniture Today, April 9, 2006
Chicago — The American Society of Interior Designers honored its Illinois chapter last month with ASID's first National Community Service Award.
The award, presented at Interiors 06: The ASID Conference on Design in Nashville, Tenn., recognizes outstanding achievement in design and honors community work.
The Illinois chapter's community service committee coordinated efforts for the interior design of a new 10,000-square-foot building housing Southwest Women Working Together in Chicago, a community group aiming to give women the tools and resources needed to lead self-sufficient and violence-free lives. The chapter devoted 500 hours of work to solicit products and services from ASID partners.
Members of the Illinois committee were Suzanne Maviano, team leader; Mary Dluzen, chapter president; Jody Gruel, Mary Lou Kalmus and Mary Murtaugh.
"Our goal for the project was to bring hope and dreams into reality for those less fortunate, and I'm very proud of our team for making it happen," said Dluzen.
ASID President Robert Wright said he is proud of the Illinois chapter.
"They set the bar high and are incredibly deserving of this award," Wright said. "We want to congratulate the entire team for their fantastic work and dedication to the Chicago community. They've set a great example of what can be done by working together for a good cause."
