The 2025 INDE.Awards winners were celebrated at the annual Gala in Sydney on 31st July.
August 11th, 2025
Well, it was the night of nights and a gala event to remember on the 31st July at Saltbox, Sydney, Australia with the winners of the 2025 INDE.Awards announced.
As 350+ of the region’s best and most talented architects and designers came together for the evening, the atmosphere was electric with anticipation and excitement. There was joy and laughter and those lucky enough to receive a TILT Industrial Design winner’s trophy, were very happy indeed!

And we thank each and every one for their support of the INDE.Awards and the outstanding design that emulates from our Indo-Pacific region.
With a stunning venue such as Saltbox it wasn’t difficult to relax and enjoy the evening as the wine and champagne flowed, tasty treats were served and everyone, at one point or another, made the dance floor their own.
It was a wonderful way to wind down, take a moment to enjoy the camaraderie and congratulate and be congratulated for the brilliant work that was submitted to the INDE.awards this year.
Our region is leading the world with innovation and originality and the INDE.Awards celebrates this on every level, but especially the gala event!
While the official party was over before the clock struck twelve, the memories will linger long of a night to remember where the region’s most outstanding architects and designers came together to be recognised and celebrated as world’s best.
While the INDE.Awards are over for this year, the 2026 INDEs will open, ready for submissions, in late November and we look forward to receiving your entries in due course.
