Deadline Alert: Nominations for the Design Middle East Awards Extended Until November 13!
The highly anticipated Design Middle East Awards 2025 are set to take place at the prestigious W Hotel- The Palm

The Design Middle East Awards is an annual celebration of creativity, innovation, and excellence in the region’s design and architecture industry. Bringing together the brightest minds and boldest talents, the event honours outstanding architects, designers, projects, and firms that have shaped the built environment over the past year. With a diverse range of categories, the awards aim to recognise individual brilliance, organisational strength, and the success of projects that set new benchmarks in design across the Middle East.
Due to the overwhelming response, the deadline has been extended until the morning of November 13. Please note that we will not be accepting any nominations after this date, as the review and shortlisting process will begin immediately thereafter.
This year, the region will experience the biggest celebration yet—bigger, bolder, and more spectacular. Beyond the awards, the evening promises dazzling performances, unforgettable moments, and a night filled with joy, fun, and dancing as we celebrate the very best of design.
