HOME Interior of the Year is an awards programme designed to celebrate the best of New Zealand residential interior design and architecture.

The awards seek to recognise outstanding design in three distinct areas of the home: Kitchen, Bathroom, and Living, inviting entrants to submit recently completed work that fits into one or more of these categories. 

In addition, two further categories, Colour, and Emerging Designer, will consider masterful use of colour in an interior space, and the work of a young or early-career designer respectively. 

The winner of each category will receive a prize valued at $10,000, consisting of a cash component and media value across the HOME brands. 

Entries are invited from those who work in the design sector, across architecture, kitchen and bathroom design, and interior decoration and design.
