On Saturday,
May 4th, the Meyer Design Award for Interior Design was given to Philadelphia University senior Casey Thompson at Philadelphia University’s 37th Annual
University Academic Award Ceremony. As part of Philadelphia University’s scholarship
and annual award program, Meyer Design sponsored this new award to recognize
and celebrate an outstanding interior design student.
Casey, who
graduated last week with a Bachelor of Science in Interior Design, held the 3rd
highest GPA in the senior class of Philadelphia University’s Interior Design
students. While a student, Casey was a
board member of the University’s chapter of the International Interior Design
Association (IIDA) and recently was the recipient of the 2012 NEWH scholarship
which funded a trip to San Francisco to attend a leadership conference on
hospitality design, which Casey plans to focus on in her career.
Casey Thompson; “I was truly honored to
receive the Meyer Design Award and even more so knowing that I was the first
recipient. It is great to see a company so involved in student work and it
provided me with a great networking opportunity.”
With over twelve
current staff members and interns from Philadelphia University, Meyer Design
has had a long-standing relationship with the University and has sought out
different ways to connect to students and the Philadelphia University
community. Meyer Design Project Manager
Phil Burkett, an adjunct Professor in the Interior Design
program, says that the Meyer Design Award for Interior Design “celebrates the
hard work of a talented design student at an exceptional Interior Design
program. PhilaU provides excellent training in interior design and we constantly
recruit students from there to be part of the Meyer team.”
