The results of the interiors public vote for Dezeen Awards 2026 have been announced, with 14 projects selected as winners by Dezeen’s readers.
Projects voted as readers’ favourite include a co-working space in Berlin that offers “more than a boring desk”, as well as a “quietly magical” Toronto cafe that provides a family-friendly third place.
Also winning this year’s public vote is an office in Kyiv featuring vintage furnishings, artworks, and quirky touches such as leftover paint swatches.
