This is CW Interiors’ 10th Anniversary Issue, and for it to be unveiled on the 13th CWAB Awards, held on 11th September, made it even more special. Along with our longstanding custom of identifying and felicitating top architects and builders, and the more recent one of awarding Noteworthy Projects, this year CWAB has gone even deeper and recognised talent from four regions of the country, having received nominations from 56 cities! The Anniversary Issue follows the standards of excellence and inclusiveness set for the awards and showcases works of 40 architects and designers from all over India! 10 Young Achievers, 10 Compact Spaces, 10 Sustainable Spaces are cheek by jowl with 10 Unique Materials. The Young Achievers, all under the age of 36, have infused contemporary sensibilities to the innate Indian ethos through their projects that are spread across the country. With spaces getting both expensive and scarce, and the need for green abounding, our next sections on Compact Spaces and Sustainable Spaces talk about how homes and offices are becoming smaller yet smarter; as well as how sustainable and green projects are being designed to live up to the ever-increasing need for eco-friendly spaces across the country. And at a time when innovation is the mantra, we celebrate 10 Unique Materials, each novel and worth celebrating. Ten years is special, and so is this issue. Look for our Blockbuster issue next month on the CWAB Awards!
