Social Gallery: Interior of the Year 2025

The 2025 HOME Interior of the Year Awards evening saw 150 architects, designers, and friends of the design community gather for an evening of inspiration at the Plumbline showroom in Auckland. Celebrating the year’s most exceptional interiors, the night reflected the creativity, collaboration, and vision driving New Zealand design forward.

 Explore the gallery for highlights from a night that showcased not only the calibre of work on display, but also the community that brings it to life. We extend our sincere thanks to our awards partners — Plumbline, Feltex, Forte, Powersurge, Resene, and NZ Panels Group — whose support makes these celebrations possible.

The evening was further enriched by our event partners — Jules Taylor Wines, Hunter’s Miru Miru, Rose Tinted Flowers, Zeffer, Good Buzz, Little Biddy, Mount Brewing Co., and Lucy’s — ensuring it was a night to remember.
