The annual Eat-Drink-Design Awards supports innovation and excellence in the design of hospitality premises of all scales and types and visual identities. The program will recognize and celebrate Australia and New Zealand’s best projects, rewarding design achievement in six categories. From high-end restaurants and bars to offbeat hole-in-the-wall cafes and pop-ups, the awards are a unique forum for architects, designers and their clients to present their best new projects. The Eat-Drink-Design Awards is the only awards program in Australasia dedicated to this specialist area.

Entries will present a wide range of environments, including bars, nightclubs, fine-dining restaurants, cafes, retail spaces and pop-up installations and will survey architecture and design practices of all scales, specializations and locations.

Winners will be announced at the Eat-Drink-Design Awards ceremony and cocktail party in Melbourne on Tuesday 23 October.
