Interior Design Magazine Presents Best Of Year Awards During Celebration in NYC
NEW YORK -- Two OFS Brands products received an Interior Design Magazine Best of Year Award (BOY,) the preeminent design competition recognizing superior interior design products and projects. Slate Office by OFS captured top honors in the contract casegoods furniture category, while Hitch by Loewenstein won the office accessories award. Four other OFS Brands products (Re: by OFS, Hinchada and Penelope by Loewenstein, Modern Amenity by Carolina) were BOY finalists and are now designated as Interior Design Magazine BOY Honorees.
Qualified interior designers and architects selected BOY product design finalists during a two-week period in October via an online vote, and category winners were determined by a jury of leading architects and designers. According to Interior Design Magazine officials, the 9th Annual BOY program experienced record-breaking numbers with more than 2,000 product submissions – a growth of more 60 percent in the last two years. The product voting site experienced a 50 percent increase in number of unique visitors with 600,000 page views and 60,000 votes.
More than a thousand people from the design community attended the BOY awards celebration hosted by Cindy Allen, Interior Design Magazine’s editor in chief and Mark Strauss, the magazine’s president and publisher, on December 4, 2014, at the IAC Building in New York City.
