And Here Are Your 2019 INDE.Awards Winners!

  •   21 June 2019

Selected by our esteemed jury from over 430 entries from 14 countries, the Winners and Honourable Mentions of the INDE.Awards 2019 represent the most progressive architecture and design in all its diversity and dynamism within the Indo-Pacific region.

In 2019 we received not only a record-breaking number of entries, but saw some of the most exciting and progressive work that exists within our vast region. We have been energised by the raw talent of our regional design community, and humbled by the Jury’s commitment and devotion to meticulously reviewing this year’s submissions.

This year’s Winners and Honourable Mentions demonstrate a new level of ingenuity and skill in producing high-quality work that is both complex in its proposition, and simply exceptional in its execution. We are incredibly thankful to our INDE.Awards Partners who have made this year’s program possible.

THE BUILDING

Winner
Maitland River Link | CHROFI with McGregor Coxall, Australia
“Simple, tactile and immediately part of the landscape” 

Photography: Brett Boardman

 

Maitland Riverlink is a public project that crystallises new value for the regional centre of Maitland in New South Wales,. The project supports a revitalisation of the central business precinct, extending it beyond the main street to the river. The space acts as a kind of ‘public living room’ for the community, reactivating an unused part of town and drawing locals back to the river that is a fundamental part of Maitland’s heritage, while bringing tourists and visitors to the town.

Winner

Space & Time | Russell & George, Australia

“An experimental workplace that evolves and intrigues”

Photography: Paul Martin

What if a space could have a mood and change itself based on what it felt like at the time? As for humans, this could mean many things, but all within a framework of recycling, reuse, adaptability, nurturing, excitement and transformation. This is Space & Time. One space, multiple functions, multiple businesses, multiple experiences governed by only one factor: time of day.

The Design Studio

Proudly partnered by Herman Miller

 

Winner 

Produce, Singapore

“Redefining practice by bridging the gap between idea and construction”

Photography: Derrick Lim

As architecture is a discipline that combines ideas of habitation with material organisation, the architect is therefore necessarily a producer of both intellectual and material goods. The original definition of the architect as master builder makes clear the role of making as fundamental knowledge of architecture. Produce was born out of the need to bridge the disjunction between designer and fabricator/contractor.

 

Honourable Mention

Edition Office, Australia

“Rethinking the experience of architecture and how it shapes us”
