The 2025 winners of the annual competition have been announced across 14 categories
The categories in the Archiproducts design awards all consider different aspects that is important to architectural design.
The winners have been selected for having the most unique concepts and exhibiting creativity, or utilising technology and research.
Some of the winners are listed below
The full list of winners is vast and too long to put here, but some standouts in the construction category include:
Harmony Hybrid
A multi-energy residential heating system by Beretta, combining an outdoor heat pump unit with a hydraulic indoor unit and a system manager unit, allowing heating, cooling, and hot water production to be done all in one system.
Renolit Alkorplan
Reonlit Alkorplan are another winner in this category with their slip resistant walkway, a synthetic PVC membrane designed for roofing, allowing a safer environment for roof maintenance in new or existing flat or pitched roofs, as well as maintaining or installing solar panels, emergency access areas, and more.
BIG AQUAREA T-CAP M SERIES
Panasonic have also won in this category with their take on a heat pump, in this case a fully monobloc solution to be used in centralised or multi-residential and commercial buildings. It is capable of both heating and cooling, providing hot water, and can be connected to solar panel energy systems. It is capable of reaching temperatures of 75 degrees Celsius, even when used with more outdated heating systems like cast iron radiators.

Architects will be key in achieving a sustainable future
Writing for PBC Today earlier this month, the chair of the Architects Registration Board, Alan Kershaw, discusses how architecture is in every aspect of every building, and therefore has a responsibility to contribute to a sustainable future as it affects everyone.
Alan wrote: “Architecture shapes the fabric of our daily lives. The homes we live in, the schools our children attend, the hospitals that care for us and the public spaces that bring communities together are all influenced by decisions that architects make. This influence brings with it responsibility – and it is our role as the regulator to make sure that it is exercised in the public interest.
“In recent months, there has been debate about how architects are regulated, including calls to revisit the legislative framework underpinning the current system and to consider alternative models. It is right that regulation is scrutinised and that different ideas are tested, and we have been in discussions with ministers about what changes might be needed to regulation to best support public safety, competence and accountability across the sector, and for how the regulation of architects can be improved. Our new Strategy outlines the improvements we will make over the next five years.
“Under our previous Strategy, ARB delivered substantial reform. We modernised the framework for architectural education and training, introduced a statutory continuing professional development (CPD) scheme for the first time, significantly improved our operational systems and established pioneering new international registration agreements – the first profession to do so. But reform is a process rather than an event, and our new Strategy focuses on embedding and evaluating the changes we have brought in so far, some of which were generational.”
