These are the 50 projects from Asia Pacific selected for Dezeen Awards 2026 Regional Showcases

Dezeen has announced the 50 projects featured in the Top 50: Asia Pacific list as part of the Regional Showcases for Dezeen Awards 2026.

Launched as a new initiative for the 2026 edition of the awards programme, each Top 50 list celebrates the best projects in three regions globally: Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA), Asia Pacific (APAC) and the Americas.

The projects in the Regional Showcases have been selected by Dezeen’s editors. Each Top 50 list highlights both the variety of creative excellence and the nuanced differences in output across the 91 countries that entered Dezeen Awards this year.

This year’s Top 50: APAC list features projects spanning architecture, interiors and design, from countries including Australia, India and Thailand as well as China, New Zealand and Vietnam.
