Now in their 14th year, the WIN Awards are intended to celebrate the best interior designers, and their most dazzling work, on an international scale. Get started on your entry today to benefit from the last week of the standard entry rate, which ends on July 4.
Every project entered in the WIN Awards is assessed by an expert panel of senior industry judges from across the world.
Maria Cheung is Director of Interior Design at award-winning architecture and design practice Squire & Partners. With experience spanning workspace, residential and hotel developments as well as bespoke installations and products, retail displays and exhibition design, Maria strives to create beautiful spaces that transcend their functional requirements to surprise and enhance the user's experience.
Maria believes the WIN Awards are vital because “celebrating, recognizing and promoting award winning work raises the bar for designers everywhere and stands as a marker that reminds us all to pursue excellence across the industry”.
“Ensure the concept and narrative behind your completed projects are threaded into your presentations,” she tells entrants.
Nataly Bolshakova, the founder and lead designer of the studio Bolshakova Interiors, loves impressionism, modernism and art nouveau, which add complexity and thoughtful aesthetics to her design projects.
She tells WIN Award entrants to “focus on telling a compelling story through your design, ensuring that every element serves a purpose and contributes to the overall narrative you're trying to convey”.
“The WIN Awards are important for organizations as they validate achievements, boost reputation, and inspire ongoing excellence, while also attracting attention and opportunities for growth,” she adds.
James Dilley leads the hospitality studio at international architecture and interiors practice Jestico + Whiles.
He urges WIN Awards entrants to “focus on the human experience and how your design enhances peoples' lives.”
“This is a great way for the teams to receive well-deserved recognition for outstanding work in a truly global field,” he adds.
