Celebrating the best of Regional Design in the Indo-Pacific for 2024 – INDE.Awards Winners are Revealed!
Published
The winners of the 2024 INDE.Awards were announced at a spectacular gala hosted by The Ritz-Carlton, Melbourne, Australia. Discover the exemplary projects, people and products that reflect the diversity of the Indo-Pacific.
As the premier awards program for architecture and design in the Indo-Pacific, the INDE.Awards annually showcases the region’s leading practitioners. The INDEs captures the extraordinary projects, people and products for the year and creates a shortlist of only 12 projects that is unique on every level. The geographical scope reflects how our region approaches architecture and design through people, place and culture and in 2024, the originality and expertise of our community knows no bounds.
On the evening of Thursday 1st August, the cream of the design community celebrated these achievements at a VIP Gala Event at The Ritz-Carlton, Melbourne and shared the occasion with a live international broadcast. Entrants from across the region gathered as the honourable mentions and winners of the 2024 INDE.Awards were announced, and we celebrated their achievements at a glittering party after the formalities. Along with the acknowledgment of their work, winners received a uniquely crafted trophy created by INDE partner Tilt Industrial Design.
The INDE team would like to extend our congratulations to all entrants, shortlisted and awarded entries of this year’s program. We extend our thanks to our esteemed jury who gave their time to assess the immense entry pool and to all of our event partners whose regional design leadership helps to drive the INDEs forward.
While the gala marks the end of the 2024 INDE.Awards, there is time to reflect on the incredible talent that resides within the Indo-Pacific and how the region is leading the way in expert and original design that pushes boundaries and offers creative ways of thinking. Entries for the 2025 awards will open in November!
