Judge Comments
Thoughtful pieces of work that sit well in the environment, often quirky with big impact. Fab!
Such a wide range of skill, ambition and creativity. Judging has been so hard, but really good fun.
Great range of entries. Very impressed with the effort and dexterity on display!
Great entries. All quite different in their style/expression, technique and story-telling narrative

This page aims to show the diversity of the world of Interior Architecture and how important it is in modern society.
With people in the western world spending on average 90% of their time in internal spaces it is clear to see that the environments we inhabit will affect the way we feel, live and engage with each others.
Interior Architecture is about designing spaces, in both new and old buildings that are not only usable, but are also inspirational, sustainable and promote a sense of wellbeing.
