The awards were held as part of the Starnet Worldwide Commercial Flooring Partnership’s Annual Meeting. These awards highlight cooperation between Starnet members and the architecture and design community, and recognize inventive uses of flooring in commercial design. Winning projects were selected by a panel of architecture and design professionals.

Interior Surface Enterprises LLC, Olathe, KS, won gold in the healthcare category for their work at the 39 Rainbow Healthcare Facility. This facility, part of the University of Kansas, incorporates restaurants and retail shops on its ground floor, with transitional care and impatient acute rehab above. Interior Surface Enterprises installed carpet and luxury vinyl tile to create a welcoming, yet durable floor. Interior Surface Enterprises relied on TEC® products to complete the installation.
