The shortlist for the IDEA 2020 Hospitality and Institutional categories have been announced.

The shortlisted projects for each category are listed below in a dedicated video and featured on the IDEA website where you can find more images and information about each project.

Shortlisted projects were selected by our editorial team. A further round of judging by our jury – Andrew Parr, Hana Hakim, Rachel Luchetti, Simone Haag, Anna Spiro, Brendan Wong and Jeremy Bull – will determine the category winners, which will be announced at our annual IDEA gala.

Here are the shortlisted projects for the Hospitality category. This category is proudly supported by Signature Floors.

Cafés, bars, restaurants, spas, gyms, wellness centres and hotels are eligible for this category.

Functionality and smart planning are important considerations for the jury here, but just as important will be the ways in which the design works with the program and personality of the venue to deliver that all-important memorable experience, drawing the clientele back for more.

And here are the shortlisted projects for the Institutional category:

This category is open to any interior design projects funded by a public body and/or that are dedicated to public care.

Projects suitable for inclusion are institutional buildings such as schools, colleges, universities, hospitals, medical centres, aged care facilities, nursing homes and prisons.

Browse all the shortlisted projects on the Hospitality page and Institutional page. Congratulations to everyone who has been shortlisted.
