The 2003 Design Awards Symposium will take place on September 22, 6:30 p.m., at the new Kevin Roche John Dinkeloo Associates-designed Kimmel Center on Washington Square South in Lower Manhattan. The program will offer a moderated discussion that presents and honors the finest examples of architecture, interiors, and unbuilt projects submitted by local firms and design individuals. A public reception will follow the discussion.

• Interiors: Antonio Citterio, Milan; Adrien Luchini, St. Louis; and Merrill Elam, FAIA, Atlanta.
