Passionate about local architecture and design? Nominate a project for a Waltham Forest Design Award

We want to hear about brilliant buildings and amazing spaces that look great and meet the needs of people who use them like making them safe, environmentally friendly, and inclusive.

Since 1990, the Waltham Forest Design Awards have celebrated high-quality design in the borough’s-built environment. 

The 2024 Design Awards will be bigger and better than ever as part of a summer celebration of design. The Awards will showcase high-quality architecture and landscape design projects across the borough selected by a diverse expert panel of judges with a connection to Waltham Forest.
