Celebrating Top Talent in Chicago’s Architectural and Design Community
Do you have a standout team member? BOS and Haworth want to help you recognize that exceptional individual who has earned your respect, appreciation, and praise.
Profiles in Design is a complimentary, invitation-only recognition program where leaders from Chicago’s AD community nominate high-performing members of their firm to be celebrated. Presented by BOS and Haworth, the 2025 edition will showcase some of the city’s top Architectural and Design firms.
As a firm principal or leader, you can nominate a team member to be honored. Both the nominator and honoree are invited to a celebratory evening at downtown’s Haworth Showroom in the Merchandise Mart, featuring hors d’oeuvres, libations, and opportunities for photos and video interviews with the honorees.
