Behind every great interior is a network of people who care about the craft. Today, we’re proud to introduce the partners standing behind the inaugural NZ Interior Awards – a group of businesses whose commitment to design runs as deep as the work we’re here to celebrate.

Each brings more than support. They bring a point of view – on movement, on light, on colour, on the quiet detail that separates the resolved from the resonant. Their backing is what allows this programme to operate with the rigour and independence the industry expects.

“At Winnings, we’ve always believed that exceptional interiors begin with exceptional product. Supporting the NZ Interior Awards is our way of championing the designers and studios who bring that belief to life.”

Ed Brenac, General Manager, Winnings

The Trophy – Something Worth the Wait

We’ve commissioned one of Aotearoa’s most distinctive artists to create the trophy for the NZ Interior Awards. An object designed to reward looking into as much as looking at. A piece that, over time and across multiple wins, builds into something extraordinary – a physical record of a studio’s pursuit of excellence.

We’ll share more soon! And don’t forget, submissions close midnight Wednesday 27 May. Over 215 submissions are already in motion – completed or in draft. If your work, or work you’ve contributed to, belongs in this conversation, there’s still time. Submissions close midnight Thursday 4 June, with finalists announced Wednesday 10 June.
