Celebrating Excellence in the Built Environment
The Guernsey Design Awards are the island's foremost celebration of architectural and design excellence.
Held biennially, and proudly supported by Norman Piette as headline sponsor, the awards recognise outstanding contributions to Guernsey's built environment — from residential and commercial developments to heritage restorations and smaller-scale projects.
With categories spanning new builds, renovations, public art and landscaping, the awards attract entries from across the full spectrum of design and construction. The 2026 awards will open for submissions in April 2026, culminating in a celebratory presentation evening in July 2026 at Elizabeth College.
