With categories spanning the interiors and exteriors of residential, commercial and public work, the submissions are judged by a panel of acclaimed industry experts who assess the design intent, degree of mastery and overall impact of colour in the built projects, as well as unbuilt, student-designed concepts.
Dulux Colour Specialist Davina Harper says the awards are an opportunity for design professionals in Australia and New Zealand to be recognised for their creativity and expertise.
“The degree to which architects and designers are utilising the transformative effect of colour increases each year and these awards highlight their understanding of colour as an integral design element,” Davina says. “Dulux welcomes entries from a breadth of genres, no matter the scale or scope of work.”
Each major category winner will receive AUD $1,000 in prize money, with students eligible to win AUD $500. New Zealand entrants can also win the New Zealand Grand Prix title and NZD $5,000.
The shortlist of finalists will be released to the public online in April 2022, with the award winners scheduled to be announced in June.
