Founder and Principal, Joni Vanderslice speaks to this achievement, “The quality and amount of work that is being produced by our team is simply amazing and we are pleased the design industry is recognizing our work” Celebrating over three decades of industry experience, Vanderslice has led her design team to create innovative projects around the world.

Esperanza Resort, luxury boutique resort in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, took first place in the hospitality category.

The design of Esperanza Resort captures the resort’s authentic, unique personality with a bold energy and fresh approach.
