The Dezeen Awards 2021 shortlists will be announced next week. After this, we’re inviting all Dezeen readers to vote for their favourite entries in our second annual public vote.
Our jury of 75 industry-leading professionals, including Rafael Viñoly, Kelly Wearstler and Sumayya Vally, have now completed the shortlisting process for this year's awards, narrowing down the longlisted entries to around five entries per category.
All shortlists will be announced on Dezeen next week, with the public vote opening on 13 September.
The public vote will allow readers to choose one entry per category until voting closes on 11 October.
Projects and studios with the highest number of votes in their category will win a special Dezeen Awards 2021 public vote winners' certificate.
Note that the public vote is separate from the main Dezeen Awards programme, where winners are selected by a jury of industry professionals.
Here's a guide to what's happening next:
6-10 September: shortlists published
The shortlisting process has now been finalised by our panel of 75 judges. The shortlists will be published on Dezeen, on our social media channels and in newsletters.
