Final Week To Submit To Interior Design’s 2026 HiP Awards

Hip Hip—it’s here! Submissions are officially open for the 13th annual Interior Design HiP Awards. Kicking off NeoCon—the industry’s most anticipated commercial design event held at The Mart in Chicago June 7-10, 2026—the HiP Awards celebrate the people and products redefining the future of commercial design. Following suit with years past, HiP Awards winners will be honored during a ceremony hosted at The Mart by Interior Design Editor-in-Chief Cindy Allen on June 7.

Thinking of entering? Building on last year’s expanded reach, eligibility once again extends beyond The Mart to all of Chicagoland, including Fulton Market Design Days. Contract manufacturers debuting new products or collections in Chicago-area showrooms this year are invited to submit. As for the People category, it’s time to put forward the visionaries (yes, nominating yourself counts!) leading the industry with creativity and impact.

Ready for your moment? Submit your standout products and nominate top talent by May 1, 2026, for a chance to be a 2026 HiP Awards winner.
