Our Ambassadors for the 2021 INDE.Awards represent a multitude of countries and each brings their exceptional talent and myriad experience to this year’s program. Through their individual work they epitomise exceptional design but more than this, they lead by their actions.

With the 2021 INDE.Awards in full swing, taking the lead to spread the word of the program are the talented and expert group of architects and designers that are our ambassadors. As in other years, the INDE.Awards ambassador is a creative renowned for his or her talent and commitment to the design community. In 2021 we have a diverse group that encompass the realms of architecture and design as well as myriad countries within our Indo-Pacific region. They each bring their own special magic to the INDE.Awards and we are delighted that they are our regional representatives to our wide community.

Our ambassadors this year are an exemplary group of practitioners that dedicate themselves to fine design. Their projects inhabit our region and enrich each community and country as they span every genre. They see that design can make a difference to the lives of those who inhabit houses, learn in the classroom, recuperate in medical facilities, practice wellness, shop, reside in a retreat or eat at a restaurant. They are consummate practitioners and leaders in their field of design.
We are delighted that each ambassador is associated with the 2021 INDE.Awards and that they value the connection that the awards bring to all who value design throughout our Indo-Pacific region. This connectivity is the very essence of the INDE.Awards and we pay tribute to those who lead the charge, our 2021 INDE.Awards Ambassadors.
