Short Description
The LIV Hospitality Design Awards aims to celebrate the quality and diversity of architectural ventures and interior design projects shaping the hospitality industry today. Launched in 2020, the program is an inclusive platform that pursues and rewards exceptional projects within living and eating spaces.
We believe in the power of architecture and interior design to shape our living experience.
Selected by our esteemed jury of architects, designers, hoteliers, developers, and leaders in the fields of architectural and interior design, the annual winners will receive the LIV Awards trophy, extensive publicity showcasing their designs to an international audience, and more.
LIV Hospitality Design Awards stands for the best LIVING space.
Society constantly redefines space. Hospitality responds by embracing these changes, whether through the introduction of new accommodation concepts or by focusing on lifestyle, design, and the lived experience of guests.
From short-term rental to private housing, beach resorts to boutique hotels, campervans to co-living, today’s types of accommodation have never been more diverse.
LIV Hospitality Design Awards stands for the best EATING space.
Local specialty restaurants are expanding globally, food courts are synonymous with diversity, and fine dining is a multi-sensorial experience; the options available in the food and beverage industry are in constant evolution, offering exciting new concepts, different atmospheres, designs, colors, and textures for both our taste buds and our eyes.
Simply put, from a cocktail bar to a food court, Michelin-starred establishment to an event space, food truck to a private club, the food and beverage scene has never been as exciting as it is today.
Hospitality architecture and interior designs are key factors in guest satisfaction and benchmarks for the level of service, quality, and comfort that a guest expects. The LIV Hospitality Design Awards strive to support and promote inspired and inspiring projects by professional designers, as well as fresh and stimulating work created by emerging designers and students
