Inside the Architect & Designer Awards: Meagan Cooperman

At last month’s Architect & Designer Awards event, interior designer Meagan Cooperman took home the award for best Transitional Interior Design, a new category introduced this year to the magazine’s long-running design competition. That same night, Meagan was delighted to learn that her work had also made the April cover of St. Louis Magazine, marking a first for the local designer. In this episode of House of Lou, Veronica chats with Meagan about her career in interior design, the story behind her award-winning work, and Meagan’s plans to grow her one-year-old design firm.
