The global success of the Architizer A+Product Awards 2021
Entries for the fifth edition of the A+Product Awards 2021 increased by more than 20% over the previous year, a sign that the pandemic has not diminished the creative force of a dynamic industry. A panel of experts reviewed products, materials, furniture and lighting across 37 categories, and bestowed prestigious awards on the solutions deemed most innovative in terms of aesthetics, presentation and market impact. The jury for the 2021 edition included representatives from several major architecture and design firms such as Aecom, Foster & Partners, Olson Kundig, Skidmore, Woods Bagot, and HDR.

The pursuit of innovative solutions
Participants in the A+ Awards Product 2021 presented pioneering solutions to preserve the environment and collective health. Solutions designed to improve people’s quality of life and ensure a better future for the planet. Some projects, for example, presented new ideas for the organization of common workspaces; others energy-efficient indoor and outdoor lighting or collections of objects made from recycled and plant-based materials.
“While functionality and longevity were key factors in deciding the victors, the makers of these products have shown that aesthetics need not be compromised; this year’s winners are a stunning exhibition of beautiful design.” Paul Keskeys, Content Director, Architizer.
The 2021 A+Product Awards also saw the return of The World’s Best Building Products, an annual online compendium of the world’s best architectural materials and products, published by Architizer. Among the winners are Arper, Arktura, Bendheim, Cosentino, Grohe, Flos, LG, Viking, and Vitrocsa.
