The shortlist for the 20th annual Australian Interior Design Awards includes 9 projects in the Public Design category.
“This year’s Public Design entries demonstrate a close connection to the client brand and ethos and there seems to be a stronger emphasis on capturing the culture of the organization,” said juror Rosie Morley. “There is a clear sense of warmth and human-centredness running through the majority of projects, which alludes to a sense of belonging and community.”
On the shortlist are:
Art Gallery of NSW, Sydney Modern Building – SANAA (Design Architect) and Architectus (Executive Architect)
Centre for Higher Education Studies – Fieldwork and Brand Architects
Clyde and Greenvale Secondary Colleges – Mcbride Charles Ryan in association with Kerstin Thompson Architects
Darebin Intercultural Centre – Sibling Architecture
Science Gallery Melbourne – Smart Design Studio
