Mez Joseph
Liollio's Sarah Glass, Associate AIA, was recognized for design excellence at the 2016 South Atlantic Region (SAR) AIA Design Awards Gala in Savannah GA. A native of Charleston SC and a graduate of Clemson University, Sarah returned to Charleston in May after receiving her Masters Degree in Architecture to join Liollio as Project Designer. Sarah and collaborator, Beth Koeppel, Associate AIA, who is currently with Kaas Wilson Architects in Minneapolis MN, were presented with a Merit Design Award for Changing Perspectives, a new campus master plan for South Carolina State University in Orangeburg SC. South Carolina State is looking for bold ways to revitalize a campus that will equip students with the tools, support and environment they need to succeed. This project looks at a new student center in the core of campus as the first step in the process to give order to the campus master plan, offer access to the newest technologies and provide a place to meet, gather and learn. This open and transparent building will change perspectives as South Carolina State’s presence continues to grow in the south.
Liollio Architecture was well represented by an enthusiastic contingent and garnered two design awards as well, one for St. Helena Library in St. Helena Island SC, and the other for the preservation to the U.S. Custom House in Charleston SC.
Congratulations to Sarah Glass, Beth Koeppel and all the honorees for their outstanding work!
