We're thrilled to announce that Small Firms, Great Projects (SFGP) is back, and it's better than ever! Small Firms, Great Projects offers a platform for small business owners to amplify their firm's visibility in print and online. In its 20th Edition, Small Firms, Great Projects explores the theme of Design Matters. Whether as a verb or a noun, Design Matters invites you to share work that makes an impact and engages with critical topics shaping the built environment today. Think adaptive reuse, ADUs, disaster-resilience design, downtown revitalization, and more. Small firms are encouraged to share how they lead through collaboration, craft, and contextual thinking.
