Welcome to the MillerClapperton Friday5 e-newsletter where you will stay up to date on the latest industry news and design trends, as well as what we are working on here at MillerClapperton in 5 quick points!

#1 TOP DESIGN DESTINATIONS TO VISIT IN MARCH

Some of the most important fairs of the year for art and design fans are happening this month. Instead of a traditional spring break, Architectural Digest (AD) has put together a list of can’t-miss industry happenings from around the world. It’s an especially big month for New York, as there are three noteworthy events including the famed Armory Show (celebrating its 25th anniversary) and AD’s own Design Show. See more cities and events here.

#2 BUILDING OF THE YEAR AWARDS FINALISTS

What are the most inspiring buildings of 2019? The Building of the Year Awards from ArchDaily are an important reflection of architectural trends from around the world. They tear down established hierarchies and geographical barriers by showcasing projects that are democratically-voted by our peers in the design industry. By participating in the process, the ArchDaily community decides what it means to push architecture forward. To see this year’s finalists and place your vote, click here.

#3 AIA BILLINGS STRENGTHEN TO 12-MONTH HIGH

According to The American Institute of Architects (AIA), 2019 is off to a good start with strong architecture firm billings that strengthened in January to a level not seen in the previous twelve months. Firms in both the South and West regions reported stronger firm billings, following some softness near the end of 2018, while firms in the Northeast reported steady growth for the fifth consecutive month, following a period of declining billings during the first half of 2018.
