2026 Timber Design Awards

17 February 2026

Now entering their 51st year in 2026, these prestigious Awards celebrate the best in timber design and construction and provide a national platform to recognise outstanding achievement in the use of timber across the built environment.

Hosted by Timber Unlimited, the Awards recognise the businesses, people, and teams who are at the forefront of the timber revolution, using timber to deliver beautiful, high-performance, low-carbon, exemplary projects – from large-scale commercial and public buildings through to residential, interior and innovation-focused work.

The awards Gala Dinner is to be held on Friday 26 June 2026 at Cordia, Auckland. Find out more and secure your tickets below.
