It was serious business and lots of fun in May when the MA09 Design Is Human launch night made it clear to the nation that the state of contemporary design in Atlanta is flourishing and steadily maturing. The kickoff served to showcase leading and emerging international and Atlanta-based creative talent while celebrating what in the minds of many makes Atlanta a destination for thoughtful and elevated design locally, nationally, and from around the world. MA09 Launch Night was attended by over 1500 creative professionals and lovers of contemporary architecture and design and took place in a very cool and large raw space in the mix-use White Provision development, located in Midtown West next to Star Provision.
