The IDEA 2022 Institutional, Public Space and Event shortlists are in!

All shortlisted projects are listed below, each with a link to a dedicated page on the IDEA website where you can find more images and information about each project.

We’ll be announcing all the projects shortlisted in the different categories over the next few weeks.

Yesterday we shared the shortlisted projects in our biggest and most highly anticipated category – Residential Single.

Shortlisted projects were selected by our editorial team. A further round of judging by our judges – Eva Sue, Nina Maya, Yasmine Ghoniem, Alexander Lotersztain, William Smart, Pascale Gomes-McNabb and Sarah-Jane Pyke – will determine the category winners, which will be announced in late November.
