The awards programme celebrates contemporary design and architecture across the MENA region
There are only three weeks remaining from architecture and interior design practices in the Middle East and North Africa to submit their projects for the identity Design Awards 2021, with nominations closing on 7 October 2021 with a gala event set to take place on 17 November 2021.
Now in its seventh year, the annual edition of the identity Design Awards is continuing with its wider selection of categories that are split between Architecture and 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 includes a new addition, now featuring a Fit Out category.
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.
The shortlist scheduled to be announced on 17 October.
