Celebrating Excellence, Our Way!

Introducing the inaugural Sophisticated Living SOPHI AWARDS, celebrating the best and brightest in design, architecture, and builders in our city. Our goal, to showcase innovative designers, visionary architects and cutting-edge projects that are shaping the future of our city.

Whether preserving the historic, celebrating the modern or cutting a new path, our city has the best and brightest professionals, and we are pleased to celebrate their work. We’ll ask these professionals to submit their work in 19 categories widely ranging in scope and designed to reflect the current design, building and architecture projects of 2020 thru 2024. In addition, we’ll celebrate one outstanding person and their career in the SOPHI Lifetime Innovator Award.

We’ll celebrate the finalists and winners at a gala on Wednesday, November 6th, at the 21c Museum Hotel.
