Dezeen's editor Tom Ravenscroft and architecture editor Lizzie Crook have been highly commended for their work at the UK's British Society of Magazine Editors Awards and the International Building Press Awards.

Ravenscroft, who was shortlisted in three categories, was highly commended in the Editor of the Year – Independent category at this year's British Society of Magazines (BSME) Awards.

"At a challenging time for the magazine, Tom has taken forward Dezeen with insightful investigations and great new innovations," the BSME judges said.

Also at this year's BSME awards former Vogue editor-in-chief Edward Enninful, who will take up the role of global creative and cultural advisor at the publication next year, was awarded the Mark Boxer lifetime achievement award. The prize was last year posthumously awarded to Dezeen founder Marcus Fairs, who passed away in June 2022.

At the International Building Press (IBP) awards, Crook was highly commended in the architectural journalist category of the year.

"For the Architectural Journalist of the Year category, the judges would first like to highly commend Lizzie Crook for her balanced but impactful and highly relevant journalism," the judges said.

"They felt Lizzie took on key issues for the sector with aplomb, avoiding the echo chamber of more mainstream views, whilst also offering insights and reportage on global concerns, brought back to the built environment."

Crook had been competing against journalists from Architects' Journal and RIBA Journal as well as against Ravenscroft, who was also on the shortlist.

The two awards follow Dezeen's editorial team being named Team of the Year at the prestigious Professional Publishers Association (PPA)'s annual awards in June of this year.

"Dezeen's editorial team produces highly creative content, displays superb team work in and the face of the most trying of circumstances pulled together to produce record-breaking traffic and revenue growth," said the judges.

Ravenscroft also won Editor of the Year at the Association of Online Publishers' annual awards ceremony earlier this year.

Dezeen's co-CEOs, Hobson and Li, were also recently nominated in the Media Leader of the Year category at the Media Week Awards.

Last year, the Dezeen editorial team was named editorial brand of the year by the IBP.
