All Dezeen Awards 2024 longlists revealed this week
Dezeen Awards 2024, in partnership with Bentley, will reveal all longlisted projects this week. The architecture and interiors longlists were announced earlier this week, and the sustainability longlist will be revealed tomorrow.
"I am particularly encouraged to see many designs prioritising repairability and durability, as well as rethinking the use of materials and production methods to minimise environmental impact,” said Chris Cooke, head of design collaborations at Bentley.
"Bentley's partnership with Dezeen is about championing design excellence," he continued, "and this year's longlist is standout across all categories."
Longlisted projects have been selected from over 4,130 entries from 82 countries for the seventh edition of our awards programmes, which continues to champion design excellence and showcase innovation from architects and designers around the globe.
The next stage of Dezeen Awards 2024 will see all longlisted projects assessed by our international jury of leading professionals including designers
Our 90 judges will determine the projects that feature on the shortlists, which will be announced in October. A further round of judging by our master jury will determine each winner, the overall project of the year winners, and the Bentley Lighthouse Award winner.
