On December 12, 2012 (12-12-12), The New York office went out for a night of celebrating AWA’s 10 years of existence. We started off the night by playing a few rousing matches of ping-pong on the office table, and then moved into Williamsburg to PIPS Ping-Pong Club and Art Gallery to continue our competitive matches.

Once we had worked up an appetite, we moved on to Extra Fancy, an American seafood restaurant located right around the corner from PIPS. There we enjoyed our meals, had a few more drinks, and discussed the possibility of the world ending in 9 days. After finishing, we stopped on the sidewalk in order to take a few photos to commemorate the wonderful night that was enjoyed by all, before parting ways and heading home to get some sleep before coming back to work the next day.

The 10 year anniversary of AWA is a milestone that solidifies our existence as a top Lighting Design office internationally. While we must keep looking forward, it is also important to be able to reflect on how far the company has come, and an occasion like this was the perfect way to honor the accomplishments made by the team. We pride ourselves in both the work ethic that exists throughout our studios, as well as the ability to come together and enjoy each other’s company outside of work.

Here’s to 10 more years!
