2021 Design Excellence Awards
IBI’s Design Excellence Awards Program, now in its third year, was founded to recognize and celebrate exceptional work across IBI’s 60+ global offices and nurture a culture of design excellence across our Intelligence, Buildings and Infrastructure sectors. For our 2021 awards program, we received more than 60 submissions from IBI teams across the globe.
Submissions were shortlisted by Sector judges, before moving to the Executive and External judging rounds. To ensure all IBI employees had a chance to participate in the awards program, staff were encouraged to vote for their favourite projects for the People’s Choice Award.
Throughout July and August 2022, new project stories will be posted on this page, so be sure to check back often!
