In its 32nd year, the Evening Standard New Homes Awards stand as a testament to the recognition, celebration, and commendation of innovation and excellence within today’s new homes.
Navigating Global Turbulence
The past year has brought unprecedented global events that have tested our resilience. Amid this turmoil, one thing remains certain: London’s unceasing fascination with the property market.
The allure of homeownership, long appreciated for its financial benefits, now finds itself in competition with intangible rewards.
Aspects such as health, well-being, access to green spaces, and quality time have taken center stage.
In this evolving landscape, workspace, nature, safety, and aesthetics have become essential considerations.
Notably, energy efficiency is no longer a luxury but a necessity.
The consequences of residing in poorly maintained, inefficient buildings extend beyond inconvenience; they hit the wallet hard.
This shift not only demands a response from the housing industry but also offers it a compelling incentive.
Awards of Distinction
The awards panel, consisting of independent property experts, seeks out homes and developments that epitomize the pinnacle of contemporary housebuilding.
Across 16 categories, these accolades encompass the entire spectrum of new-build properties.
From modest first-time buyer flats to opulent mansions, from environmentally conscious eco-homes to architecturally exceptional creations, and from intimate boutique apartment projects to large-scale regeneration endeavors, all have a chance to shine.
Notably, both refurbishment projects and new builds are eligible, including those in the retirement living sector.
Embracing Inclusivity
In a climate where aspiring homeowners strive to secure their place on the property ladder, the awards warmly welcome entries from housing associations and affordable housing initiatives.
Regardless of the category, all entrants are encouraged to present their projects with high-quality imagery and clear descriptions.
This platform provides an opportunity to showcase architectural visions and share the challenges surmounted on the journey to completion.
The Grand Reveal
The anticipation reaches its peak as the winners will be unveiled during an extravagant luncheon at The Dorchester Hotel on Friday, September 29, 2023.
