Entries are now open for the 2020 identity Design Awards
Designers and architects across the MENA region can now enter their projects.
Entries are now open for the 2020 identity Design Awards, with interior designers and architects across the Middle East and North Africa invited to submit their projects. The Gala event is set to take place on the 4th of November, 2020.
Following the huge success of the inaugural identity Design Awards in 2015, the launch of the sixth annual edition of the identity Design Awards is featuring a wider selection of categories than ever before.
This year’s awards programme aims to broaden its sphere of projects with the addition of five new architecture categories, alongside a refreshed list of opportunities for interior design.
The separate Architecture section features categories that span from residential and commercial buildings to cultural, commercial and hospitality projects.
Our interior design categories also include new additions including the Nightlife category, that is set to include any interior space dedicated primarily to drinking and socialising including bars, clubs and event spaces.
The two Interior Design and Architecture sub-sections also each have a Design of the Year category, selected from among the winners of the interior design and architecture categories respectively.
Our panel of international jury members will be announced soon as well as the exciting new venue for the event.
