Emerging Voices 2018
Emerging Voices is a biennial citation awarded to individuals and firms with distinct voices and demonstrated influence in Atlanta’s design community.
Since 2001, the juried series has presented a public forum for the exhibition of local, early-career architects and designers, encouraging the exchange of ideas among these practitioners and the public.
We invite design professionals to submit work of all types, theoretical or real, and executed in any medium. The jury then selects work for public exhibition.

Jeffrey’s Exhibit
Jeffrey presented an exhibit that questions the typical exteriors of our buildings and the multiple meanings of the term ‘envelope.’ The installation explores parametric variations emanating from a series basic steps: (1) given a space, (2) populated with control points, (3) define curves, and (4) join to create surfaces.
