We spoke to past winners, who shared the transformative impact the accolade has had, with one designer heralding it as "a lifetime achievement".

More media attention, global recognition – plus new business leads and projects – were all cited as positive outcomes of winning.

Dezeen Awards "brought heightened recognition from the global design community," said global furniture brand Humanscale, which took home workplace design of the year.

Meanwhile, Canadian designer Philippe Malouin described winning lighting design of the year as "energising" and told Dezeen that the accolade "brought more eyes to our work".
