Foley Design is beyond proud of our talented employees. We recently found out that Jose and Amelia are 2-time Winners and 1-time finalists of the Architizer A+ Awards for their Guga S’Thebe Children’s Theatre. While both attending Georgia tech in the summer of 2014, they participated in a design-build studio project that consisted of designing a theater for the township of Langa, South Africa. They both played significant roles in the design and implementation of this project which consisted of recycled materials –shipping containers with insulated walls of wooden crates and mud thatch. The exterior elevations were made with wood from recycled fruit crates and donated bricks. Check out their awesome design;
