Global Category Winners: Highest scoring across all regions from the Judges scores & the Public Vote combined. Will be announced live at the SBID Awards Ceremony.
All shortlisted Interior Design entries will also be up for a chance to receive the accolade of Overall Winner as the highest scoring entry from the Judges scores & the Public Vote across all regions & entry categories.
