BOOKMARK ARTICLE

With the revelation of the FRAME Awards 2024 spatial shortlist, we anticipate the winners of the year, set to be announced on 24 October 2024 at a live ceremony in Hong Kong. Until then, familiarize yourself with the projects that are in the running to be the spaces that define the industry this year.

Premised on the notion of recognizing spaces that matter, the FRAME Awards is, above all else, about championing innovation in interior design. Culminating next month in the reveal of our annual winners for 2024, this edition of FRAME Awards has attracted a diverse range of players, big and small, from all corners of the industry – and the globe. The projects that have made it to our shortlist this year underscore that forward-thinking responses to today's most salient problems aren't just coming from companies at the top of the industry, but tomorrow's design leaders as well, with an impressive array of promising young studios still in the running. Embodying themes from experience and community to wellbeing and agility, hundreds of submissions across 24 categories in the Retail, Hospitality, Work, Institutions, Living and Shows sectors, have competed for the title of winner of the month, scored on Innovation, Functionality, Creativity and Sustainability. Get to know the spaces that will compete in each category for the title of winner of the year.
