Dezeen Awards China 2024 reveals 34-strong interiors shortlist

Dezeen has announced the interiors shortlist for this year's Dezeen Awards China, which includes interiors by Linehouse, Say Architects, UNStudio and Conran and Partners.

Among the projects, which are located in 15 different cities across China, is a retreat designed to evoke a cabin in a bamboo forest in Hong Kong, as well as an old shophouse turned into a workplace in Xiamen.

The shortlist also includes an experiential housing design in Fuzhou and an exhibition design in Shenzhen that transforms a magazine into an immersive spatial experience.
