Judging
As we navigate the uncertainties surrounding COVID-19, HIA is monitoring the latest advice to ensure a safe environment for judges, homeowners and entrants. While on-site judging would normally take place during July to September, we may need to change the way we judge this year. We will be in contact with each entrant to advise of the arrangements. It is the responsibility of the entrant to provide details to the home owner.
The following categories are not judged on-site:
Kitchen Design - Bathroom Design - Residential Building Designer - Residential Interior Design
Practical completion changes
Due to the extension of entry date for 2020, HIA will accept all projects with a practical completion date between 30 April 2018 and 30 June 2020.
