Well-designed lighting makes such a positive impact on our work, and on this International Day of Light, we want to express our thanks to our incredible in-house  lighting designer, Cait Toczko, IALD, CLD, WELL AP, LEED GA. Cait’s dedication to creating beautiful, energy-conscious lighting solutions enhances the quality of the architecture and interiors she touches.

Newmanites Dov Feinmesser, Associate Principal and Director of Sustainability and Abigail Carlen, Associate Principal and Director of Marketing made their way over to the Corpotate Real Estate Women (CREW) awards last week to accept three awards as members and representatives of our talented and dedicated project teams at Newman.
 
Thank you to CREW for honoring Newman alongside The Tower’s team,  Gus Keach-Longo and Jesse Wescott, with a Best in Class award in the senior living category for the renovation and addition of The Towers.

It was a pleasure for our team to join our client, Fairfield University at their annual awards dinner last week. Thank you to Fairfield for hosting a wonderful event, and congratulations to all the awardees!
 
Newman has had the privilege of collaborating with Fairfield University on more than forty projects over the past two decades. We deeply value our strong relationship with the University and we are grateful for their trust in us to create meaningful, impactful campus architecture.
 
After a night celebrating Fairfield, our team went right back to work on our ongoing projects, including the adaptive reuse of the former school of business into sophomore housing, the Fairfield Prep Barron Arts and Athletics Addition, and other upgrades to dining, athletics, and academic spaces. We can’t wait to see our current projects come to life and look forward to what’s ahead!
