Two WKA projects were recognized with awards during AIA Chicago’s Designnight 2021!
The Momentary, one-of-a-kind contemporary arts experience creatively repurposed from a 70-year old decommissioned Kraft Foods Plant in Bentonville, Arkansas, was recognized with a Distinguished Building Award.
The Night Ministry, a renovation project which provides housing, healthcare and human connection to members of the Chicago community experiencing homeless or poverty, was recognized with an Interior Architecture Award.
