The 2025 INDE.Awards is over for another year but there are so many exemplary projects from our region that populated the shortlist – it’s worth taking a moment to review. And after all, it is this breadth and variety of projects from so many countries that makes the INDEs unique.

One practice that was included on five shortlists, yes five shortlists, was Jenchieh Hung + Kulthida Songkittipakdee / HAS design and research. While this studio has been recognised in the past with a win in The Retail Space for its project, Casa de Zanotta in 2023, this year its projects were assessed by our esteemed jury as outstanding and were included in multiple shortlists.

With the Simple Art Museum in The Building, Aluminium Grotto and Public Ground in The Influencer, Simple Design Archive in The Retail Space, Simple Cuisine Gallery and Restaurant in The Social Space and Simple Creative Workplace in The Work Space, the practice made quite the impact.

At the gala, Jenchieh Hung + Kulthida Songkittipakdee / HAS design and research and Thailand were represented by the Ms. Namrin Anukul, Consul of the Royal Thai Consulate-General Sydney and it was a pleasure to have such exulted company at the event.

While the practice was well represented at the 2025 INDE.Awards, The Graduate category shortlist was also populated with students from Thailand and China that were led by Chulalongkorn University‘s visiting professor, Jenchieh Hung. This is the first time that Chulalongkorn University, Thailand’s top-ranked architecture school, has been featured in the INDE. Awards. 

Recognised in the shortlist for The Graduate were, Bhuvarin Thaveetermsakul and Gourav Dey from Chulalongkorn University and Kai Wen from South China University of Technology and it is a credit to the students and their teacher that in their first INDE.Awards, these entrants achieved shortlist status.

With so many extraordinary projects in the 2025 INDE.Awards and only 12 projects shortlisted in project categories, Jenchieh Hung + Kulthida Songkittipakdee / HAS design and research should be very proud of their achievements. Making an impact on the built landscape of Thailand and the region is something that this practice is accustomed to, and as it spreads its wings across the region and indeed the globe, we are all the richer for architecture and design that makes such a difference to the way that we all live, work and play.
