Entries for Dezeen Awards 2021 open 2 February

Want to win one of these amazing trophies next year? Dezeen Awards 2021 will open for entries on 2 February, with the discounted early-entry period running until 31 March. Sign up to the Dezeen Awards newsletter to receive more information.

Now entering its fourth year, Dezeen Awards identifies the world’s best architecture, interiors and design projects, as well as the studios and the individual architects and designers producing the most outstanding work.

Launched in 2018, Dezeen Awards has become one of the most prestigious and popular awards programmes in the industry attracting more than 4,300 entries from 83 countries this year.

Dezeen Awards is also one of the most affordable awards programmes. Our low entry prices are designed to attract smaller studios and avoid categories being dominated by large companies that can afford to enter multiple categories.

Every longlisted and shortlisted project gets its own page on the site, and shortlisted projects will be written about on Dezeen. Winners receive a bespoke hand-made trophy designed by Atelier NL and a certificate.
