THE JUDGING PROCESS

The awards are judged by invited representatives of Environment Councils; National Architecture Institutes; Interior Designers' Associations and other invited professionals that constitute the judging panel.

Judges will consider each category independently of other judges and will then choose their top 10 projects according to the judging criteria.  We at HA+D will then aggregate all the scores once all nominees have been received from the judges and will then compile the shortlist of finalists which will then be posted online for the scrutiny of our readers.  Readers will be encouraged to vote on the best in each category and the winner will be that project or product with the most reader votes.

The judging panel will also be tasked to find an overall winner for projects, sustainability and product categories

No judge or their company will be permitted to submit to the awards.

All decision rights are final and consequently complaints will not be accepted.
