Dezeen has announced the sustainability shortlist for this year’s Dezeen Awards, which includes projects by Hassell<\/a>, Squire and Partners<\/a> and Morrama<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The 30 shortlisted projects, which are in the running to be crowned winners across five different sustainability project categories, are by studios located in 16 different countries including Norway<\/a>, Indonesia<\/a>, Canada<\/a> and India<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Shortlisted projects include a plant-filled “terminal in a garden”<\/a> in Bengaluru, a “very special and rare” pair of mid-century modern office buildings<\/a> in London and the world’s first industrial aluminium made with 100 per cent post-consumer aluminium<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Finland’s largest mass-timber building<\/a> in Helsinki, structured using around 7,600 cubic metres of spruce and ash and composed of almost 2,500 pieces of cross-laminated timber (CLT)<\/a> and laminated veneer lumber, is also shortlisted.<\/p>\n

Dezeen Awards 2025, in partnership with Bentley<\/a>, will reveal all shortlisted projects this week. The architecture, interiors and design shortlists were announced earlier this week.<\/p>\n
