The 2010 Benjamin Moore HUE Lifetime Achievement Award will be given for the first time to an interior design firm, Diamond Baratta Design, and its principals William Diamond and Anthony Baratta. The HUEYs, which recognize those in architecture and interior design whose work embodies a passion for color usage, will be held on May 5, 2010, at the Museum of Arts and Design, in New York City.

The winners of the HUE glass sculpture and $5,000 cash prize are Ghislaine Viñas Interior Design, New York, for residential interiors; Envision Design, Washington, DC, for contract interiors; Amy Wax, Montclair, NJ, for residential exteriors; and, Allen + Philp Architects/Interiors, Scottsdale, AZ, for contract exteriors. Additionally, a special achievement award will be given to Cleveland-based Eikona Studios for its restoration and preservation of mural art and masterpieces in American churches, cathedrals and houses of worship.

"Benjamin Moore is proud to present HUE to another group of immensely talented and visionary architects and interior designers who have clearly demonstrated their understanding of the power, impact, emotion and vitality that color brings to our world," said Eileen McComb, director of corporate communications for Benjamin Moore. "We applaud these design professionals and their exemplary achievements."
