You know your project deserves its moment in the spotlight, and we know it, too. But first, it needs to meet the deadline: July 31, 2025, at 11:59 p.m. That’s the final day to enter the 2025 Midwest Design Awards (MDA), where industry leaders, rising talents, and creative collaborators are celebrated for projects that push boundaries and define excellence across residential, commercial, and specialty spaces.
Whether you’ve transformed a lakeside retreat, created a showstopping foyer, or reimagined an outdoor kitchen, your work deserves recognition on one of the Midwest’s most respected stages: the MDAs. With nearly 70 categories—including historic renovation/restoration, sustainable design, and detailed craftsmanship categories like stair railings and wall treatments—the Midwest Design Awards honors the impressive depth and diversity of our region’s design-build scene, from interiors and architecture to landscaping and more.
Beyond the accolades, each submission is an opportunity to amplify your firm’s story, align your work with nationally respected judges, and for one deserving Best in Show winner, earn a feature in Midwest Design’s Spring 2026 issue. Even better? Half your entry fee becomes a credit toward future print advertising—making it a smart business move as well as a bold creative one.
The entry portal closes at 11:59 p.m. on July 31. Submit your standout projects, images, and statements at MidwestDesignAwards.com and put your work on the map. You’ve already designed something exceptional—now it’s time to show it off.
