New England Design Hall of Fame Gala of November 7 a Great Success.
Posted on Mon, Nov 12, 2007
The first New England Design Hall of Fame Gala took place on November 7th, 2007, at the State Room in Boston and was a great success.
At the Gala, ten inaugural inductions were made to the Hall of Fame from the New England design community. We were delighted that Jeremiah Eck, the founding partner of Eck|MacNeely Architects, was among the inductees.
The New England Design of Fame was a joint creation of the Boston Design Center and New England Home magazine. Its mission is to recognize “individuals who have had a significant career in design in New England.”
The Gala also saw the presentation of the first of the New England Design Hall of Fame Scholarships in support of students of design and architecture.
New England Home magazine has kindly permitted us to reproduce a special feature published in honor of the Hall of Fame in its November/December 2007 issue. The feature contains excerpts about all of the inaugural inductees, as well as an in-depth feature on Jeremiah Eck (please click on the links to read the article).
