Hart & Co. Kitchen design awards

Welcome to the 2026 Kitchen Design Awards - five years of recognising the projects and talent shaping Western Australia's kitchen design landscape. What started as a platform for recognition has become the benchmark for WA's designers, architects, builders and cabinet makers – local talent who bring precision, innovation and intent to every space they create.

This year's program celebrates work where materiality, functionality and sustainability are considered together –where design decisions are made with clarity and built with craft. From new builds to renovation transformations, we're looking for the kitchens defining WA design, across two new categories. Open to any WA professional involved in designing and building kitchens, as well as students of design and cabinet makers.
