SBID Founder and CEO, Dr. Vanessa Brady OBE comments: “We have all been struggling to cope with the broad effects caused by Covid-19 – as individuals, as well as a community. So the Awards this year, whilst very different, have been particularly inspiring to review. It just goes to prove the importance of our surroundings and how the way we feel and act within them is directly impacted by it. It’s been an important reminder to business owners that good design is not just about its aesthetic and functionality, but particularly in commercial space, it’s also about the intrinsic value great design adds to business.”

This year’s esteemed international jury comprised visionary leaders who understand that outstanding design is key to business success. With their combined expertise and professional insight, the judging panel included a host of top-tier professionals from global design businesses such as Burberry; Bentley; Belmond; Jacobs; Walpole, and Quintessentially.
