Each year, the release of the INDE.Awards shortlist marks an important evolution in regional architecture and design. The annual announcement is a catalogue of a year of achievements and a window into the ecosystem of the Indo-Pacific industry.
Covering all areas of design including commercial, residential, industrial design, interior design and – for the first time – photography, the INDE.Award shortlist takes an exploration through the ways in which people and their practices are responding to the challenges, demands and desires of the places they call home.
2023, as the seventh annual awards, is a testament to a region that is continuing to find its place on the world stage. Materiality is rich and diverse, and design processes are becoming increasingly thoughtful and collaborative. As the chasm between past and present becomes more and more intricate, this year’s shortlist highlights how our most creative designers and architects are drawing on the lessons of the past to meet the needs of the future.
Of course, the awards are made possible by the commitment and dedication of the Jury, who bring their diversity and expertise in assessing the incredible array of talent that the INDE’s attracts.
So too, the 2023 partner cohort continues to support INDE and the regional industry. From Platinum Partner Zenith to Category Partners Autex Acoustics, Bosch, Capral Aluminium, Colorbond, Gaggenau, K5, Kaolin, MillerKnoll, Milliken, Technogym, Woven Image the awards and summit are brought to life through their commitment to powering excellence.
Though the shortlist contains some of the most outstanding projects, people and products in the history of the programme, there can only be one winner of each category. Join us as the winners are announced at a live Gala Awards evening to be held in Sydney and broadcast live around the world on Thursday August 10th, 2023. Registrations for the online viewing party are open and the digital event is free to attend.
And so, with great excitement and much pleasure, we present the 2023 INDE.Awards shortlist and congratulate those who have been afforded the grand accolade as shortlisted in category.
