Longlisted projects and studios have been selected from over 4,700 entries from 87 countries for the fourth edition of our awards programme, which celebrates the world's best architecture, interiors and design as well as studios and individuals producing the most outstanding work.

Shortlists to be unveiled in September

The next stage of Dezeen Awards 2021 will see all longlisted projects assessed by our panel of 75 industry-leading professionals including Olafur Eliasson, Sumayya Vally, and Arthur Casas.

The judges will determine which studios feature on the shortlists, which will be announced in September. A further round of judging by our master jury will determine the category winners, which will be announced in November.
