Thirty-one Australian projects are among the 207 interiors projects longlisted for the 2018 Dezeen Awards.
The awards program, which is a new initiative for the international design blog, attracted more than 3,500 submissions from 91 different countries. The program is divided into three main category groups: interiors, design and architecture. Special awards for Interior Designer of the Year and Emerging Interior Designer of the Year will recognize all-round design excellence for a body of work.
Australian projects feature prominently on the interiors longlist, with a particularly strong showing in the House interior section, with 10 entries among the 26 longlisted.
The architecture longlist, which can be found here, featured 23 Australian projects. Australian architecture projects were longlisted in every architecture category and were well represented in the hospitality category, with six longlisted entries.
The longlist will be judged by a panel of international judges, which includes Astrid Klein (Klein Dytham Architecture, Amanda Levete (Amanda Levete Architects), Sadie Morgan (DRMM), John Pawson (John Pawson Architects), Thomas Heatherwick (Heatherwick Studio) and Ma Yansong (Mad Architects). The shortlist will be announced in August.
