Laura Bielecki from GAJ, a 2006 Interior Design graduate from Mount Royal University in Calgary who has been living in the Middle East (Doha and Dubai) for the past 16 months, won Young Interior Designer of the Year, Middle East at the Commercial Interior Design Awards in Dubai.
Given to the most promising commercial interior designer, under the age of 30, currently working in the Middle East, Bielecki was selected as being the most impressive multi-skilled individual who could successfully design across diverse avenues of the interior industry.
Judges said her work was “stunning”, and commended her role in sharing her passion for design through social media.
“I’m so shocked and overwhelmed to have picked up this award. I’m going back to Canada soon for a well-deserved vacation and, as soon as I’m back in Dubai, the hard work continues,” said Bielecki, when she picked up her award.
