This year’s shortlist reveals that two New Zealand interiors projects are in the running to win awards at the global awards event held in Singapore later this year.
The 2024 Inside Shortlist represents over 80 interior projects from across the globe, in cities including: New York City, Dubai, Beijing, Osaka, São Paolo, Phuket, Delhi, Auckland, Mexico City, Lisbon, and London. Leading design firms to feature in this year’s shortlist include Foster + Partners, Broadway Malyan, Nikken Sekkei and Office AIO. Many emerging design firms will also be on stage, live pitching against the big names.
The shortlist celebrates the best new completed interiors across ten categories, ranging from Hotels to Workplace, and Residential to Retail, and showcases some of the world’s most cutting-edge interior design concepts and trends.
Two projects from New Zealand have made it into this year’s Inside shortlist:
- Workplace (large): Precinct Properties Auckland Office by Warren and Mahoney (WAM)
- Residential: Sunny Side Up by Rogan Nash Architects
Amongst the interiors projects to be shortlisted this year are the Zhengze School by WIT Design & Research, the renovation of an abandoned paper mill in Beijing into a primary school, the Embassy of Australia in Washington D.C., by Bates Smart, and The Fennia Block, by Olla Architecture, which sees the redevelopment of a historic block in the centre of Helsinki, Finland into a restaurant and retail space.
The New Zealand projects that have made the cut have done so in a year where the competition has been tougher than usual. Said Inside programme director Paul Finch: “A welcome increase in entries this year has given the shortlisting judges a pleasant challenge — with a record number of finalists heading to Singapore this year.”
In terms of trends, Finch comments that “…vivid colours, greater use of planting, and the creation of innovative hybrid spaces for multiple uses” have emerged in this year’s shortlist.
Inside is the sister festival of the World Architecture Festival (WAF), the world’s biggest live architectural awards programme, celebrating the very best in interior design. Both Inside and WAF finalists will present their projects to a panel of judges live at the international festival in Singapore 6–8 November.
