Celebrating the achievements of architects, designers, and building professionals across the commercial and residential sectors, the annual competition exemplifies NanaWall’s relationship with the A&D industry and highlights its design excellence.

In its 11th year, the competition received the most entries to date. Submissions consist of design details, project photography, and videos featuring NanaWall products, which were reviewed by judges who selected a shortlist of 86 projects.

This year, Gold winners were selected in 13 categories:

“We are thrilled to have received the most submissions in the awards' 11-year history. This is a testament to our relationships with the A&D community that we dedicate ourselves to nourishing,” says Ebrahim Nana, President and CEO of NanaWall. “The winning projects reflect the endless possibilities of the ways designers and architects can use NanaWall, and serve as an example of operable glass walls’ adaptability, advanced performance, and role in enriching spaces through design.”

An additional 13 projects were awarded Silver status in each category. Details and photos of all projects can be found on the NanaAwards page. Each winning project will receive a prize and be featured across NanaWall’s platforms to celebrate its contributions to design excellence.
