At the 2025 Oklahoma Interior Design Awards ceremony, senior Grady Morton was awarded the “Best in Student Category” award, and sophomores Ayla Fetters and Maeleigh Drake both received honorable mentions in the Student Category for their Life Church Employee Cafe project.
The Oklahoma Interior Design Awards competition is organized by the Oklahoma Interior Design Coalition (OIDC), a professional organization of interior designers. The student competition is open to any interior design student in the state of Oklahoma. Entries are judged on design quality, originality, and how well the project meets its required specifications. Award decisions are made by design professionals selected by the OIDC Board.
Congratulations Ayla, Maeleigh, and Grady!
